Hi all

Specifically for the knowledge extraction use-case I would take the
data-set and ask an expert to point to relevant events, events that
show a failure/misbehaviour, for instance a storm of BGP signaling
messages, or as simple as an interface flapping, going down, etc.

Then and by means of correlation analysis techniques, we will find
correlations between such relevant events and other prior and past
events. With this we can try to anticipate a failure/misbehaviour
and/or understand why it is happening.

I hope that this helps!

Albert

Allow me to ask my questions in another way, if you can obtain data as you want, what data items will you choose to perform you machine learning process? What analysis tasks will you assign to the machine learning process? What feather or patent may you use? What kind of knowledge are you expecting from it?
