Methods and systems for automatically tracking the rerouting of logical circuit data in a data network
First Claim
1. A method to automatically track rerouting of data in a network, the method comprising:
- generating, without manual intervention, a table to store current reroute statistics based on the rerouting of the data from a logical circuit that has failed to a logical failover circuit in the network, the current reroute statistics including trap data corresponding to the logical circuit in the network, the trap data including a committed burst size, the logical circuit identified by a first logical circuit identifier, the logical failover circuit identified by a second logical circuit identifier, the first and second logical circuit identifiers renamed until the logical circuit has been restored from failure; and
updating the table, without manual intervention, to store updated reroute statistics, the updated reroute statistics including updated trap data corresponding to the logical circuit in the network, the updated reroute statistics being based on a change in a status of the logical circuit corresponding to a frame being dropped when the committed burst size has been exceeded.

Abstract
An example method involves generating, without manual intervention, a table to store current reroute statistics based on rerouting of data from a logical circuit that has failed to a logical failover circuit in a network. The current reroute statistics include trap data corresponding to the logical circuit. The trap data includes a committed burst size. The logical circuit is identified by a first logical circuit identifier. The logical failover circuit is identified by a second logical circuit identifier. The first and second logical circuit identifiers are renamed until the logical circuit has been restored from failure. The table is updated, without manual intervention, to store updated reroute statistics. The updated reroute statistics include updated trap data corresponding to the logical circuit. The updated reroute statistics are based on a change in status of the logical circuit corresponding to a dropped frame when the committed burst size has been exceeded.
