Patent attributes
A network capacity planning system for forecasting and scheduling of network capacity for electronic devices is provided. A server monitors usage of a network associated with the electronic devices. The server analyzes a frequency of a transmission of data packets between the electronic devices and the network, and a time duration of a network busy time based on predetermined thresholds. The server uses results of the analysis to drive a dynamic mechanism, which identifies when a bandwidth associated with the network needs to be upgraded to support the growing network bandwidth requirements. The server adjusts a network capacity value of a network routing device associated with the network to support the required bandwidth for an operation of the electronic devices.
