Abstract

Systems and methods are provided for correlating alarms throughout a multi-layer network and visualizing alarm clusters in a display of an interactive Graphical User Interface (GUI) to enable a network operator to prioritize urgent network issues. In one embodiment, an interactive GUI includes a main display area configured to display one or more geometrical shapes representing one or more alarm clusters, respectively. Each alarm cluster may represent a potential root-cause event in a network. The interactive GUI also includes one or more interactive objects that, when selected by a user, provide additional information associated with the one or more alarm clusters.
