The system displays the cause of the specific alarm. The database includes alarms and events of network devices, network systems, and network applications. The specific alarm consists of a notification of an occurrence of the plurality of events.

Method and system to correlate a specific alarm to one or more events to identify a possible cause of the alarm

A method and apparatus for intelligent storage and reduction of network information reduces an amount of storage space required for network information by receiving current network information and comparing the current network information with previously received network information. The current network information is saved if the current network information exceeds the previously, received network information by a threshold, and an identifier associated with the current network information is updated if the current network information does not exceed the previously received network information by the threshold.
