Maxim Sergeevich Logachev · International Journal of Advanced Trends in Computer Science and Engineering · 2020
This article describes the main methods of analysis of local area network (LAN).Detection of broadcast storm is an issue upon such monitoring.Storm is one of the main failure causes of operation of corporate LAN, which can result in property and reputation damage if it is not prevented at the level of monitoring of network resources or at the level of network settings.This work describes in details the tools and mechanisms of revealing, elimination, prevention of storm spreading.The results are presented as formal models reflecting execution of business processes at the enterprise while organizing monitoring (BPMN diagrams) and reflecting system of planning and resource usage upon implementation of respective process (EPC diagrams).The main protocols of LAN monitoring are analyzed, which is an important factor to understand settings of equipment and overall LAN.The obtained results can be applied for designing and development of comprehensive system of failure prediction or monitoring of corporate LAN.
