Abstract

There is provided a method of operating a self-organizing network and system thereof. The method comprises processing data informative of network events with regard to the one or more access points and respectively served clients, thereby periodically associating the clients with the one or more access points; periodically assessing to each access point a value indicative of a privilege level of a given access point, the value being a function of priority values assigned to clients associated with the given access point during an assessing period; and using the assessed values for periodically identifying at least one access point requiring at least one corrective action in consideration of its privilege level. The method can further comprise periodically reassigning at least part of priority values to be used for assessing the values to the one or more access points, wherein reassigning comprises processing data periodically received by the SON system.
