The disclosed technology relates to determining a period in which a network is busier relative to other periods. The method may comprise analyzing network utilization data from a network segment of the network. The network utilization data may be collected over a first duration. The method may further comprise of determining, from the network utilization data, a baseline network utilization. The baseline network utilization may be a persistent quantification of network utilization present throughout the first duration. The method may further comprise identifying at least a reoccurring period that is characterized by network utilization data indicating consecutive network utilization that is above the baseline network utilizations; and configuring a network controller to designate the at least the reoccurring period as a busy period.

Identification of busy periods for network segments

The disclosed technology relates to determining a period in which a non-urgent RRM update should be deferred. The method may comprise applying a first update to an existing configuration of the plurality of wireless access points in the network based on an analysis of telemetry received from the plurality of wireless access points received over a period spanning at least two busy periods. The method may further comprise applying a second update that modifies the first preferred network configuration based on an analysis of telemetry received during the first busy period. The method may further comprise applying a maintenance update to the tweaked network configuration based on telemetry received during the next busy period.
