Abstract: Techniques and architecture are described that provide a multi-platform tool focused on displaying various levels of a topology of a network to a user while maintaining an original context of the user that was initially selected. Elements within the topology are dynamically added or removed from the user's view, e.g., the display, as the elements come in and out of focus. For example, in configurations, as the user traverses the topology, e.g., graph, the nodes that are not of interest generally become invisible. Thus, the user receives a clear view of how the selected component changed according to the user's actions and may achieve an easily maintained history of the current hops through the network topology.

Abstract: In one embodiment, a device obtains temperature and utilization measurements for a set of network interface transceivers in a network. The device computes, for each of the transceivers, a correlation coefficient between its temperature and utilization measurements. The device applies a k-nearest neighbor classifier to the correlation coefficients, to predict a correlation coefficient. The device uses the predicted correlation coefficient to determine an impact of temperature on utilization of a particular network interface transceiver. The device initiates a mitigation action, when the determined impact of temperature on the utilization of the particular network interface transceiver exceeds a predefined threshold.
