METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR CONGESTION DETECTION AND VALIDATION IN A NETWORK

Abstract:

A method for managing a network by a network monitoring system, wherein the network comprises a plurality of network devices, the method comprising receiving, by the network monitoring system, in-band network telemetry (INT) data from a network device of the plurality of network devices, updating a latency model of the network using the INT data to obtain an updated latency model, identifying a congestion point in the network using the updated latency model and at least a portion of the INT data, validating the congestion point; and initiating a remediation action based on the validation.
