Abstract:
In one embodiment, network data is received at a Learning Machine (LM) in a network. It is determined whether the LM recognizes the received network data based on information available to the LM. When the LM fails to recognize the received network data: a connection to a central management node is established, a request is sent for information relating to the unrecognized network data to the central management node, and information is received from the central management node in response to the request. The received information assists the LM in recognizing the unrecognized network data.
Abstract:
In one embodiment, network data is processed using a Learning Machine (LM) algorithm in a network, and results of the processing of network data are determined. A reliability checking algorithm is selected to determine a reliability level of the results. The reliability checking algorithm may be a local reliability checking algorithm or an external reliability checking algorithm. The reliability level of the results is determined using the reliability checking algorithm. Then, the LM algorithm is adjusted based on the determined reliability level.
Abstract:
In one embodiment, variables maintained by each of a plurality of Learning Machines (LMs) are determined. The LMs are hosted on a plurality of Field Area Routers (FARs) in a network, and the variables are sharable between the FARs. A plurality of correlation values defining a correlation between the variables is calculated. Then, a cluster of FARs is computed based on the plurality of correlation values, such that the clustered FARs are associated with correlated variables, and the cluster allows the clustered FARs to share their respective variables.
Abstract:
Association and mobility patterns corresponding to client devices within a 5G network are tracked in real-time. A machine learning model is trained to identify, based on these patterns, periods of time for powering down one or more 5G nodes within the 5G network. The machine learning model, based on these periods of time, generates a set of power saving profiles that are used to automatically define power saving modes for the one or more 5G nodes. The machine learning model is updated according to changes to the association and mobility patterns resulting from the power saving modes.
Abstract:
A system and method are provided for tracking the quality of telemetry data in a wireless network, and to provide profiling of the telemetry to prevent erroneous radio resource management (RRM) computations. Statistical profiles are generated from the telemetry data that includes both computation data, which is used in RRM computations, and other network data. A data-quality score is generated based on the other data and statistical profiles of the computation data. The data-quality score represents whether the telemetry data is of sufficient quality to be used in RRM computations. The data-quality score can be based, at least in part, on detecting changes in the statistical profiles relative to a baseline statistical profile of the telemetry data and using the second network data to assess a likelihood that the detected changes arise from a degradation in a quality of the first network data.
Abstract:
Cell edge prediction for optimized roaming may be provided. Cell edge prediction can include predicting cell edges for a plurality of APs including a connected AP and one or more additional APs. A cell edge prediction can be for a client connected to the connected AP. The cell edge prediction may comprise an indication of one or more candidate APs for the client to roam to of the one or more additional APs and an estimated time the client will reach the cell edge of the connected AP. After generating the cell edge prediction, the cell edge prediction can be transmitted to the client.
Abstract:
The technology provides for providing an interactive user interface to explore a complete network, see relationships with various aspects of the network, and drill down to details in an instinctive manner. In some embodiments, network component data is received that identifies metrics associated with network components. A graphical user interface made up of representations of network components of a network is presented, where the network components are selectable. Relevant network components are displayed at varying network scales by receiving an input selecting a first representation of a first network component at a first network level. Based on a network component relationship between the first representation of the first network component and a second relationship of a second network component, second network component data is received that identifies one or more metrics associated with the second network component. The second network component is at a second network level. The one or more metrics associated with the second network component are presented within a context of the second network level.
Abstract:
In one embodiment, a first device in a network maintains raw traffic flow information for the network. The first device provides a compressed summary of the raw traffic flow information to a second device in the network. The second device is configured to transform the compressed summary for presentation to a user interface. The first device detects an anomalous traffic flow based on an analysis of the raw traffic flow information using a machine learning-based anomaly detector. The first device provides at least a portion of the raw traffic flow information related to the anomalous traffic flow to the second device for presentation to the user interface.
Abstract:
In one embodiment, a device receives health status data indicative of a health status of a data source in a network that provides collected telemetry data from the network for analysis by a machine learning-based network analyzer. The device maintains a performance model for the data source that models the health of the data source. The device computes a trustworthiness index for the telemetry data provided by the data source based on the received health status data and the performance model for the data source. The device adjusts, based on the computed trustworthiness index for the telemetry data provided by the data source, one or more parameters used by the machine learning-based network analyzer to analyze the telemetry data provided by the data source.
Abstract:
In one embodiment, a device in a network analyzes data indicative of a behavior of a network using a supervised anomaly detection model. The device determines whether the supervised anomaly detection model detected an anomaly in the network from the analyzed data. The device trains an unsupervised anomaly detection model, based on a determination that no anomalies were detected by the supervised anomaly detection model.
