NETWORK MANAGEMENT DEVICE, NETWORK MANAGEMENT SYSTEM AND NETWORK MANAGEMENT METHOD - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18242861 titled 'NETWORK MANAGEMENT DEVICE, NETWORK MANAGEMENT SYSTEM AND NETWORK MANAGEMENT METHOD
Simplified Explanation
The abstract describes a network management device that can identify errors in individual terminal devices and groups of terminal devices based on response time differences.
- The device detects individual errors in a target terminal device if the difference between its response time and the average response time of other terminal devices in the same group exceeds a certain threshold.
- The device also identifies group errors in a target group if the difference between the current average response time and the previous average response time of the group's terminal devices exceeds a certain threshold.
- The previous response time refers to the response time immediately before the current response time.
Potential applications of this technology:
- Network monitoring and troubleshooting: The device can help network administrators quickly identify and address errors in individual terminal devices and groups, improving overall network performance.
- Quality of service optimization: By detecting errors in terminal devices and groups, the device can assist in optimizing the quality of service provided to users by identifying and resolving issues that may impact response times.
Problems solved by this technology:
- Efficient error detection: The device provides a systematic approach to identify errors in terminal devices and groups based on response time differences, allowing for timely troubleshooting and problem resolution.
- Proactive network management: By detecting errors in real-time, the device enables network administrators to proactively address issues before they impact the overall network performance.
Benefits of this technology:
- Improved network performance: By quickly identifying and resolving errors, the device helps maintain optimal response times for terminal devices and groups, enhancing the overall network performance.
- Enhanced user experience: The proactive error detection and troubleshooting capabilities of the device contribute to a smoother and more reliable user experience by minimizing disruptions and delays.
Original Abstract Submitted
A network management device determines at least one of that an individual error occurs in a target terminal device when a difference between (i) a response time for the target terminal device and (ii) an average response time that is an average value of the response time for each of two or more terminal devices belonging to a group to which the target terminal device belongs is larger than a first predetermined value, and that a group error occurs in a target group when a difference between (i) a current average response time that is an average value of the response time and (ii) a previous average response time that is an average value of a previous response time for two or more terminal devices belonging to the target group is larger than a second predetermined value, the previous response time being immediately prior to the response time.
