Abstract:
A management apparatus executes: receiving from a given communication apparatus where a fault has occurred, fault information; selecting a given flow that passes through the given communication apparatus from among a group of flows on the basis of the identification information of the given communication apparatus included in the fault information; determining whether the communication pattern of the given flow is similar to the given time series data indicating the change over time of the traffic within a period from a set period prior to the fault occurrence date and time to the fault occurrence date and time for the given flow; calculating the certainty that the given flow has been transmitted on the fault occurrence date and time on the basis of a frequency of appearance of the traffic of the communication pattern determined to be similar; and outputting calculation results.

Claim (Index 1):
A management apparatus connected to a network that connects a group of computers, comprising:\n a processor that executes a program; a storage device that stores the program; and an interface that connects to the network, wherein the storage device stores a communication pattern indicating periodic change over time in a traffic of a flow for a customer that is a series of data flowing between computers within the group of computers in the network, and identification information of a communication apparatus in the network through which the flow passes, and wherein the processor executes: a reception process that receives, from a given communication apparatus where a fault has occurred in the network, fault information that includes the identification information of the given communication apparatus and a fault occurrence date and time; a selection process of selecting a given flow that passes through the given communication apparatus from among a group of flows on the basis of the identification information of the given communication apparatus included in the fault information received during the reception process; a determination process of determining whether the communication pattern of the given flow is similar to the given time series data indicating the change over time of the traffic within a period from a set period prior to the fault occurrence date and time to the fault occurrence date and time for the given flow selected by the selection process; a calculation process that calculates the certainty that the given flow has been transmitted on the fault occurrence date and time on the basis of a frequency of appearance of the traffic of the communication pattern determined to be similar by the determination process; and an output process of outputting calculation results obtained by the calculation process.
