Abstract
A Management-as-a-Service (MaaS) agent running on a client network creates a reverse session-origination (RSO) tunnel between the client network and a MaaS server. The MaaS agent collects client statistics at and regarding the client network and transmits the client statistics to the MaaS server. The MaaS server analyzes the client data and sends alerts or other messages to a user, who may be outside the client network, in the event certain conditions are met.
