A device may receive network data identifying a topology of network devices of a network, quality of service (QoS) rules for user equipment (UEs) and application flows associated with the network, QoS profiles for a radio access network (RAN) of the network, and service data flow (SDF) templates. The device may process the network data, with a model, to calculate a network device service level agreement (SLA) score, for each of the network devices on a sliding window, to generate network device SLA scores, and may aggregate the network device SLA scores to generate an end-to-end SLA score on the sliding window. The device may generate QoS configuration data based on the end-to-end SLA score, and may implement the QoS configuration data.

Systems and methods for control of applications based on quality of service monitoring

Network apparatuses, networks, computer program products, and management station operational methods are provided. One aspect of the invention provides a network apparatus including a management station adapted to couple with a network including a plurality of managed devices, the management station being configured to output a plurality of initial commands for application to respective managed devices, the initial commands being configured to stimulate initial responses from the managed devices, the management station being further configured to receive the initial responses, to identify responding ones of the managed devices responsive to the received initial responses, and to provide an asset table containing the identified managed devices. Another aspect provides a management station operational method including providing a network comprising a plurality of managed devices; outputting a plurality of initial commands to the managed devices using a management station to stimulate initial responses from the managed devices; receiving the initial responses from the managed devices using the management station; and identifying the managed devices using the management station responsive to the receiving the initial responses.
