With the diversification and rapid growth of communication services, monitoring and management of networks have become increasingly complex. Therefore, the conventional failure diagnosis procedure, in which network operators execute network commands to check the device status and to determine the failure locations and causes, does not scale, and its automation is in high demand. However, the output logs of these commands for troubleshooting, called device command outputs, are unstructured text messages consisting of tens to hundreds of lines, and therefore automatic analysis and information extraction have been challenging tasks. In this study, we propose a feature extraction method from device command outputs, which automatically identifies templates, i.e., primary parts of device command outputs, and extracts parameter variables that vary with command outputs as features. The proposed method first divides each command output into blocks, each of which constitutes a template. The blocks are then merged into clusters and a sequence of words that commonly appear within the blocks in each cluster is extracted as a template. Finally, parameter variables are identified by using the templates, and feature vectors are constructed by considering the types of words, such as numbers and symbols. Furthermore, we apply the proposed method to data obtained from a real network to evaluate the accuracy of template extraction. Moreover, as an example of the application of the extracted feature vectors, we perform anomaly detection using device command outputs and demonstrate the usefulness of the proposed method. |
