ABSTRACT:
An exemplary embodiment of a system for a time-bucketing data collection module is disclosed. The time-bucketing data collection module may be configured to retrieve information from remote network devices and to collate (or sort) the retrieved information into time interval bins (or time-buckets) to assist in the maintenance of a network. The sorted information is then utilized by a threshold calculation module of the time bucketing data collection module to calculate a baseline value, defining a normal operating range for a performance parameter, for the time interval. Subsequently, the calculated baseline value is used to calculate a revised threshold value by the threshold calculation module. The revised threshold value is then forwarded to a threshold comparator configured to compare incoming information (or data point values) with the updated thresholds. If the incoming information exceeds an updated threshold, an alarm is generated by an alarm module of the time-bucketing data collection module. The time-bucketing data collection module may be further configured to perform the calculation of the baseline value and/or threshold in response to receiving an incoming information (or data point value). Alternatively, the calculations may be made on a periodic basis set by a user.
