📄️ Badfellas
Badfellas is a Trisul internal feature that manages Host Monitor allow-lists and deny-lists for long-tail hosts, automatically updating which hosts are monitored as top talkers or excluded from monitoring.
📄️ Bandwidth asymmetry
Bandwidth asymmetry is a condition where the upstream and downstream capacities of a link are different. It is common in access networks and can affect performance planning.
📄️ Batch processing
Batch processing is the execution of data processing tasks in grouped runs rather than continuously in real time.
📄️ BGP peering analytics
BGP peering analytics monitors traffic flows across BGP peerings by combining flow data with BGP routing information to analyze traffic per autonomous system, prefix, and peering interface in real time.
📄️ Bidirectional flow
A bidirectional flow is a network conversation that combines two unidirectional flow records into a single record showing both directions of communication between two endpoints.
📄️ Billing
Billing in network analytics is the process of turning usage data into charges, allocations, or account summaries for customers or internal groups.
📄️ Bucketizer
A Bucketizer is a data-processing mechanism that groups values into predefined ranges or categories, helping analysts understand how measurements are distributed across a network or dataset.
📄️ Buffer monitoring
Buffer monitoring is the process of watching device buffers to see whether packets are being queued, delayed, or dropped because output capacity is not keeping up with demand.
