Abstract
A network management station is configured to test a computer network through digital model personas. The network management station obtains network behavior data corresponding to user(s) of the computer network and generates digital model(s) based on the network behavior. The network management station deploys a first digital model persona based on a first digital model among the generated digital models. The first digital model persona operates at a first network location to test the computer network.
Claims20
A method comprising:
- obtaining network behavior data corresponding to one or more users of a computer network;
- generating one or more digital models based on the network behavior data corresponding to the one or more users;
- and
- running a first digital model persona based on a first digital model among the one or more digital models, the first digital model persona operating at a first location of the computer network to test network operations from the first location of the computer network.
An apparatus comprising:
- a network interface configured to communicate with computing devices in a computer network;
- and
- a processor coupled to the network interface, the processor configured to:
- obtain network behavior data via the network interface, the network behavior data corresponding to one or more users of a computer network;
- generate one or more digital models based on the network behavior data corresponding to the one or more users;
- and
- cause a first computing device at a first location of the computer network to run a first digital model persona based on a first digital model among the one or more digital models, wherein the first digital model persona is configured to test network operations from the first location of the computer network.
A system comprising:
- a network management station configured to monitor a computer network, the network management station configured to:
- obtain network behavior data corresponding to one or more users of the computer network;
- and
- generate one or more digital models based on the network behavior data corresponding to the one or more users;
- and
- a first computing device at a first location of the computer network, the first computing device configured to run a first digital model persona based on a first digital model among the one or more digital models.
