In one embodiment, a node in a computer network detects a misbehaving node in the computer network based on the misbehaving node acting in violation of one or more rules. As such, the node communicates information regarding the misbehaving node to a network management system (NMS), and then may receive isolation instructions from the NMS regarding how to isolate the misbehaving node from the computer network. Accordingly, the node may perform the isolation instructions. In another embodiment, the NMS receives the communicated information regarding the misbehaving node, and determines whether the misbehaving node should be isolated based on the communicated information. If so, then the NMS determines isolation instructions regarding how to isolate the misbehaving node from the computer network, and transmits them to one or more nodes in the computer network, accordingly. |
