  • Publication number: 20250106125
    Abstract: An analysis device (40) receives an xFlow packet that is generated based on a sampled encapsulation packet and includes information regarding an outer header of the encapsulation packet and statistical information of a flow including the encapsulation packet. The analysis device (40) collates information regarding the outer header associated with information for identifying a user of VPN with information regarding the outer header included in the xFlow packet received by a reception unit (431), and specifies the user of the VPN from which the xFlow packet is transferred.

  • Publication number: 20250016079
    Abstract: A division unit divides communication traffic in a communication network into a plurality of streams. A calculation unit calculates a first abnormality degree based on a result of autoregressive analysis of a first stream among the plurality of streams, and a second abnormality degree based on a comparison result between the first stream and a second stream similar to the first stream. A determination unit determines whether the cause of the abnormality is the first stream, a stream different from the first stream, or a communication network based on the first abnormality degree and the second abnormality degree.

  • Patent number: 12028234
    Abstract: A conversion device analyzes an input packet and acquires header information included in the packet. Furthermore, the conversion device classifies packets into one of a plurality of groups on the basis of the acquired header information and set grouping conditions. Subsequently, the conversion device generates packets for analysis on the basis of the processing corresponding to the classified groups.

  • Publication number: 20240129221
    Abstract: A conversion device analyzes information of an input packet using hardware and determines whether to perform predetermined previous stage processing using the hardware. Furthermore, when it is determined to perform the previous stage processing, the conversion device uses the hardware to provide metadata including identification information indicating a group of packets to the packets on the basis of the fixed-length header information of the packets. In addition, the conversion device uses software to generate analysis packets corresponding to the group of packets using the provided metadata.

  • Publication number: 20240121193
    Abstract: An extraction unit extracts predetermined information from an outer header and an inner header of a tunneled packet passing through a network device in which congestion has occurred. An evaluation unit evaluates an order in which fine grain flows in a tunnel subdivided with reference to the extracted predetermined information are subject to TE, based on attribute information of the fine grain flows.

  • Publication number: 20240121190
    Abstract: A design apparatus optimizes, with a first granularity (for example, a real number solution), a traffic volume allocated to each of links between adjacent nodes included in a network. In addition, the design apparatus calculates an approximation solution obtained by approximating, with a second granularity (for example, an integer solution), the traffic volume having been optimized with the first granularity. Furthermore, the design apparatus maps logical paths to each of routes constituted by the links in accordance with the approximated traffic volume.

  • Publication number: 20230038630
    Abstract: A conversion device (10) includes a separation unit (11) that separates an inputted encapsulated packet into flow information and sampled headers including outer headers and inner headers, a decapsulation unit (12) that separates the outer headers from the sampled headers, and a conversion unit (13) that obtains statistics about the inner headers on the basis of the sampled headers separated from the outer headers, generates an xFlow packet including at least statistical information indicating the statistics about the inner headers, and outputs the generated xFlow packet to an external device.

  • Publication number: 20220407794
    Abstract: When receiving packets of a flow from a network device (1), a transmission control device (10) determines, according to processing abilities of flow collectors (20), rates in transmitting information concerning the flow to the collectors 20. The transmission control device (10) selects, based on header information of the received packets, the flow collector (20) to be a transmission destination of the information concerning the flow of the packets. The transmission control device (10) transmits the information concerning the flow at the rate determined for each of the flow collectors (20).
