In fact, Jil Westcott at BBN has been doing some work in automated network monitoring related to ADDCOMPE and packet radio networks. There have also been several proposals for "monitoring protocols". I'm happy to see you working in this area. It is clearly critical for large internets like NSFnet and the evolving national research internet. Hopefully, with this new push, a "standard approach" can be developed.
