Abstract

The authors present a maximum a posteriori method to identify faulty links in a communication network. A designated network node with management responsibilities determines a fault has occurred due to its inability to communicate with certain other nodes. Given this information as well as the information that it can communicate with another specified set of nodes, one would like to identify as quickly as possible a ranked list of the most probable failed network links. The authors also indicate how the method might be extended to the identification of most probable faulty network resources in a more abstract (higher level) model of a network, including, for example, an object-oriented model. >
