Abstract
Method and apparatus for processing traffic of interest in a network is described. In one example, a baseline profile and at least one threshold is computed using initial aggregated volume data for the traffic of interest. Aggregated volume counts for time periods in a time interval are obtained. Differences between the aggregated volume counts for the time periods and values of the baseline profile for corresponding time periods are computed. An alarm is triggered for each of the differences that exceeds the at least one threshold.
