Fault management is crucial to pro vi de quality of service grantees for the future networks, and fault identification is an essential part of it. A novel fault identification algorithm is proposed in this paper, which focuses on the anomaly detection of network traffic. Since the fault identification has been achieved using statistical information in mana gement information base, the algorithm is compatible with the existing simple ne twork management protocol framework. The network traffic time series is verified to be non-stationary. By fitting the adaptive autoregressive model, the series is transformed into a multidimensional vector. The training samples and identif iers are acquired from the network simulation. A k-nearest neighbor classif ier identifies the system faults after being trained. The experiment results are consistent with the given fault scenarios, which prove the accuracy of the algo rithm. The identification errors are discussed to illustrate that the novel faul t identification algorithm is adaptive in the fault scenarios with network traff ic change.
