Dynamic maintenance priority setting for network devices
The patent US12034606B2 outlines a computer-implemented method and apparatus for setting maintenance priorities for network devices within a communication network. The method involves arranging network devices into an ordered list based on customer requirements and usage information. It dynamically establishes at least two maintenance priority classes, which are used to schedule maintenance operations aimed at addressing potential communication failures before they occur. The maintenance priority classes are designed to set specific time limits for resolving these forthcoming failures, ensuring that higher priority devices receive timely attention.
Additionally, the method includes provisions for obtaining relevant customer and usage information from databases and network operation systems. It allows for the dynamic assignment of devices to different priority classes, taking into account previous maintenance priorities and establishing default classes for new devices. The process can be repeated at predefined intervals, ensuring that maintenance priorities remain current and effective. The apparatus described in the patent comprises a processor and memory configured to execute the outlined methods, facilitating efficient management of network device maintenance.
