System and methods for identifying and remedying traffic imbalances and inequities between networks |
摘要 |
Implementations described and claimed herein providing systems and methods for modeling and visualizing interconnection relationships between a first provider network and a partner. In one implementation, a partner of a provider network is defined by at least one interconnection point where network traffic may be exchanged between the provider network and the partner. An interconnection relationship is generated based on the at least one interconnection point. The interconnection relationship is modeled. |

1. A method comprising:
by a processor coupled to a memory, wherein the processor is configured to execute instructions stored on the memory, the instructions comprising the steps of: defining a partner of a provider network by at least one interconnection point where network traffic is capable of being exchanged between the provider network and the partner; generating an interconnection relationship between the provider network and the partner based on the at least one interconnection point; generating a traffic balance projection between the provider network and the partner based on the interconnection relationship; modeling a traffic balance projection scenario, the traffic balance projection scenario depending on one or more potential interconnection points where network traffic is capable of being exchanged between the provider network and the partner, the one or more potential interconnection points altering the interconnection relationship between the provider network and the partner; and outputting a report of the modeled traffic balance projection scenario. |
