A system and method for detecting, reporting and collecting information associated with network events is provided. A network element, such as an Event Reporter, detects an event that requires reporting to a manager of the network. The Event Reporter can determine if it is the lead responsible for reporting the event and forward it directly to the manager. Alternatively, it can forward the event report to a peer entity that has been designated as the lead. If the Event Reporter is the lead for the event, it can determine that it should relinquish the lead responsibility and initiate a hand-over of the lead role to a peer. |
