Abstract
A network analysis method is applied to traffic data collected in respect of a network of the type comprising a plurality of logical segments each with a plurality of nodes. The method involves processing the traffic data by preferentially removing traffic associated with nodes identified as acting as global servers, and using the remaining traffic to identify nodes acting as local servers. Upon the local servers being identified, the network analysis method carries out further processing to make suggestions as to whether any of these local servers should be moved to another logical segment and as to whether it would be worthwhile splitting a segment between two associated local servers.
