Dynamic configurable data monitoring system and method for distributed network

Abstract

The invention relates to a system and a method for monitoring distributed network data with dynamic configuration in the technical field of computer network. In the invention, an agent module of data acquisition collects the data of an affiliated network data platform according to the configuration files set by users and carries out preprocessing of the collected data; the preprocessing comprises operations of data packet filtration and data packet disassembly, wherein, the data packet filtration refers to protocol filtration operation, namely, the invalid data pocket is discarded according to the filtration mechanism defined by the users; the data packet disassembly operation refers to that useful information in the data packets is extracted according to presented content by the users and the data required by the users is reported to a data center module in the form of XML document; the data center module is responsible for processing the data files reported by the agent module of data acquisition and in the form of XML, and carries out dynamic management on the agent module of data acquisition by inquiring, configuring and updating the XML documents. The system and the method of the invention simplify the design of the system, and improve the ability of the system to process data as well as usability and robustness of the system.

Description

Technical field [0001] The invention relates to a data monitoring system and method in the field of computer network technology, in particular to a dynamically configurable distributed network data monitoring system and method. Background technique [0002] With the continuous development of the Internet, more and more important applications are carried on the Internet, and the network structure is becoming increasingly complex. The measurement of network performance is an important means to deeply understand the behavior of the entire network, analyze and discover network performance bottlenecks, optimize network resource allocation, and strengthen network management. At the same time, instant messaging has become one of the main forms of modern human communication activities based on the Internet. However, due to the openness and privacy of the Internet itself, the content of people’s communications is not easily monitored. It is inevitable that there will be some malicious spe...

Problems solved by technology

Its disadvantage is that the system is more valuable in recording network activities, but its function in analyzing network activities is very weak, because it cannot recognize the protocol of data transmission, for example, the monitoring system cannot recognize HTML, XML and other protocols

[0005] In addition, whether it is the above system or in the Wireshark software, various rules are set for the data packets that need to be analyzed. These rules are pre-programmed, and the user has no flexibility to adjust these rules.

At the same time, the analyzer runs in a stand-alone environment. Although it is convenient to monitor the local network, it is powerless when it needs to monitor multiple networks.
