A network device inputs first network status information of the network device in a first time period to an ECN inference model, to obtain an inference result that is output by the ECN inference model based on the first network status information. Then, the network device sends an ECN parameter sample to an analysis device that manages the network device, where the ECN parameter sample includes the first network status information and a target ECN configuration parameter corresponding to the first network status information, and the target ECN configuration parameter is obtained based on the inference result. The network device receives an updated ECN inference model sent by the analysis device.
