Abstract

A method may provide performance management for a data communication network including a plurality of network elements. The method may include defining a cluster of the network elements for a performance metric, and defining one of the network elements of the cluster as a proxy network element for the cluster. A proxy baseline of the performance metric for the cluster may be calculated based on performance metric data for the proxy network element, and the performance metric for each of the network elements of the cluster may be monitored using the proxy baseline of the performance metric. Related systems and computer program products are also discussed.
