Abstract
Communications between servers of a network are received and processed to generate network subgraphs. The network subgraph may be used for implementing administrative domain wide policies, for presenting information on a user interface, or for other purposes. A unit network subgraph is generated for each server. The unit network subgraph represents communications of the server with other servers. A network subgraph is generated by aggregating information of unit network subgraphs servers included in the network subgraph. The network subgraph may be used to evaluate an expression specified by an administrative domain wide policy. The result of evaluation of the expression may be used to determine whether actions specified by the policy are executed. The network subgraph may be used for processing network flow queries, for example, for displaying network information on a user interface.
