Abstract

A method for analyzing a connection oriented multiplexing and switching network (COMSN), includes dividing a subsection of a COMSN network into a plurality of virtual channel characterization (VCC) layers, extracting frames from the subsection when the frames are available over a period of time in each of the plurality of VCC layers, and selectively displaying objects associated with the frames and the relationships between the objects.
