  • System and method for automatically diagnosing protocol errors from packet traces
    Patent number: 7836341
    Abstract: A system and method for automatically diagnosing protocol errors from packet traces is provided. The system and method performs an automatic trace analysis on a packet trace to generate an analysis that is then fed into a diagnosis/resolution module. The diagnosis/resolution compares the trace analysis with the database of known problems to identify the protocol error and a suggested solution. The suggested solution then may be implemented, either by a user or by the DR module, to correct the protocol error.
