  • Patent number: 11729657
    Abstract: A control apparatus (40) is configured to acquire a required end-to-end performance required for an end-to-end path from a first end node to a second end node, and determine each required segment performance required for a respective one of the path segments based on the required end-to-end performance. The control apparatus (40) is further configured to communicate with a node included in each path segment or communicate with an entity controlling the path segment to enforce a corresponding one of the required segment performances in the path segment. The control apparatus (40) is further configured to update a required segment performance currently enforced in at least one path segment based on an achievement status of each of the required segment performances in the respective path segments. It is thus, for example, possible to contribute to guaranteeing the required end-to-end performance even when quality of each path segment changes.

  • Patent number: 11729642
    Abstract: An alert that is generated by a first orchestrator associated with a first subsystem or received from one or more distributed orchestrators that are associated with one or more corresponding subsystems is analyzed. The alert is triggered by a change in behavior determined by a behavioral analysis algorithm associated with the first orchestrator or corresponding behavior analysis algorithms associated with the one or more distributed orchestrators. It is determined whether an alert is indicative of a false positive based on an objective associated with the first orchestrator, an algorithm associated with the first orchestrator and one or more constraints associated with the first orchestrator. The alert is filtered in response to determining that the alert is indicative of the false positive.
