Abstract
Methods, systems, and computer-readable media for providing near real-time alerts to users of IP traffic flow patterns on an IP network are provided. IP flow data collected from the network is periodically analyzed to determine if alerts need to be generated, based on a number of alert filters received from users. If alerts are to be generated, they are generated for transmission to the associated users.
