Abstract
A metric driven method for managing a network can include the step of specifying a profile for a network event. The profile can include multiple discrete factors and can be associated with at least one event operation. Metrics can be received from multiple remotely located components residing within a network space. The metrics can be compared to the discrete factors, where each compared metric can correspond to one of the factors. A determination based on this comparison can indicate whether the network event has occurred. When the network event has occurred, the previously specified event operation associated with the network event can be automatically executed.
