Abstract
A system adapted to identify a router port corresponding to a DWDM device port is disclosed. A port identification server gathers and accumulates time series traffic data for a port of a DWDM device and plurality of router ports. The port identification server compares the time series traffic data for the port of the DWDM device with the time series data for router ports in order to determine which one of the router ports has data transmitted therefrom and received thereat that best fits or corresponds to the data received at and sent from the DWDM port. The port identification server identifies the router port that has time series data traffic that most closely matches the data traffic at the DWDM port as connected to the DWDM port.
