The broader impact/commercial potential of this I-Corps project it to help implement networks that are less likely to fail or can recover more quickly under failure, thus providing a more reliable networking infrastructure. The project targets software-defined networks, which promise improved network functionality, but have seen slower-than-expected deployment due to the lack of network management solutions. Bringing a novel fault detection and traceback system to market may have significant impact on the software-defined network management business.This I-Corps project aims to develop a commercialization plan for a network management and troubleshooting tool for software-defined networks. The technology aims to provide network operators with improved network visibility. Software-defined networks are very dynamic, which provides network operators with the capability and flexibility to program the network, but at the cost of more complex troubleshooting. The methodology used in our technology uses network state in such a way that enables operators to visualize the evolution of their network, resulting in faster root cause analysis when network faults occur.

该I-Corps投射的更广泛的影响/商业潜力，以帮助实施失败可能性较小或可能在失败中更快恢复的网络，从而提供更可靠的网络基础架构。该项目针对软件定义的网络，该网络有望提高网络功能，但由于缺乏网络管理解决方案而导致的部署速度较慢。将新颖的故障检测和追溯系统带到市场上可能会对软件定义的网络管理业务产生重大影响。此I-Corps项目旨在为网络管理和软件定义网络的网络管理和故障排除工具制定商业化计划。该技术旨在为网络运营商提供提高的网络可见性。软件定义的网络非常动态，它为网络运营商提供了编程网络的功能和灵活性，但以更复杂的故障排除为代价。我们技术中使用的方法使用网络状态，以使操作员能够可视化网络的演变，从而在发生网络故障时产生更快的根本原因分析。
