Abstract: A system may be configured to store a set of service-level agreements (“SLAs”) associated with a subscriber. The system may receive key performance indicator (“KPI”) information for traffic that traverses one or more nodes of a network; forecast, based on the SLA information and the KPI information, a violation of the particular SLA; take corrective action, based on the forecasting; and output, to the subscriber, derived information based on the KPI information. The derived information may be outputted after taking the corrective action, and may indicate that the particular SLA was not violated. The derived information may be outputted at a slower rate than a rate at which the KPI information is received by the system.

The device may select, in response to the request, a set of queues that includes a queue selected at each of the network devices, the selected queue, at each of the network devices, being associated with a maximum latency period. The device may transmit one or more messages, to the network devices, indicating that the selected set of queues are to be used for buffering of the packet flow during packet scheduling.

The device may output information identifying the group of weight factors to cause a parameter, associated with the network device, to be updated based on the group of weight factors. The parameter may relate to a manner in which the traffic flows are processed by the network device.

Abstract: Service level agreement (SLA) based monitoring and configuration of a path for transmission of data is achieved by identifying an SLA associated with the data and determining transmission requirements associated with the SLA. A status of a network element in the path, such as data occupancy of a data queue included in the network element, may be determined and used to select one of a high bandwidth portion or a low bandwidth portion of the pathway. The occupancy of the queue may be used to estimate a transmission delay, and the estimated transmission delay is used to select between the high bandwidth portion and the low bandwidth portion. The data may be directed to the selected bandwidth portion by changing a quality of service (QoS) value or other attribute associated with the data.

The determining may be based on at least one of: the one or more attributes or the one or more performance indicators. The system may output, based on determining that the alert threshold has been met, information regarding the time at which the particular portion of the traffic was received by the network device, the one or more attributes, and the one or more performance indicators associated with the particular portion of the traffic.

The logic may be further configured to identify one of the computer devices to which the request is to be forwarded, and forward the request to the identified computer device.

Abstract: A network device includes a network interface device that receives at least a subset of a plurality of recoverable packets. The plurality of recoverable packets corresponds to a plurality of original packets generated by a source device. A processor having a packet recovery module recreates each of the original packets based on the subset of the recoverable packets received. The subset of recoverable packets excludes recoverable packets lost during transmission to the network interface device. A system includes a first network device that generates original packets and converts the original packets to recoverable packets. A second network device receives at least a subset of the recoverable packets, excluding recoverable packets lost during transmission from the first network device. The second network device includes a packet recovery module that recreates the original packets based on the subset of the recoverable packets received at the second network device.

The one or more parameters may cause the RAN to elevate a priority associated with the traffic when transported via the RAN.
