METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR DETECTING ABNORMALITIES IN NETWORK ELEMENT OPERATION

Abstract:

A method for detecting abnormalities in network element operation. The method includes monitoring at least a portion of the network element for abnormalities and making a determination that an abnormality exists, in response to the monitoring, and based on the determination, tracking the abnormality. An abnormality includes a measured performance that deviates from a nominal performance, but that does not cause erroneous behavior of the network element.
