Abstract
In one embodiment, a network assurance service that monitors a network calculates network frequency distributions of a performance measurement from the network over a plurality of different time periods. The service calculates entity frequency distributions of the performance measurement for a plurality of different groupings of one or more network entities in the network over the plurality of different time periods. The service determines distance measurements between the network frequency distributions and the entity frequency distributions. The service identifies a particular one of the grouping of one or more networking entities as an outlier, based on a change in distance measurements between the network frequency distributions and the entity frequency distributions for the particular grouping. The service provides an indication of the identified outlier grouping to a user interface.
