1. A method, comprising:
processing, by a processor, one or more parameter selection inputs received by way of a graphical user interface comprising a plurality of parameter input fields, each parameter input field of the plurality of parameter input fields being configured to receive a parameter selection corresponding to a threshold correlation rule associated with monitoring a communication network;
processing one or more node selection inputs received by way of the graphical user interface;
causing a list of one or more key performance indicators (KPIs) associated with monitoring the communication network to be populated based on the one or more parameter selection inputs and the one or more node selection inputs;
causing one or more of the KPIs to be selected for inclusion in the threshold correlation rule based on a selection of one or more of the KPIs included in the list of the one or more KPIs;
processing one or more threshold comparison inputs received by way of the graphical user interface, the threshold comparison inputs comprising at least one KPI of the one or more KPIs selected for inclusion in the threshold correlation rule, a threshold comparison target to which a KPI value of the at least one KPI is compared, and a threshold comparison condition identifying a basis for comparing the KPI value of the at least one KPI to the threshold comparison target;
processing one or more breach consistency condition inputs comprising:
a first quantity of KPI values defining a first quantity of consecutive KPI values to compare to the threshold comparison target according to the threshold comparison condition to determine whether one or more of the first quantity of consecutive KPI values results in the threshold comparison condition being true; and
a second quantity of KPI values defining a first quantity of instances within the first quantity of consecutive KPI values that the threshold comparison condition being true is a minimum quantity indicating that an operating state of the communication network is outside a preset operating performance level that the at least one KPI is configured to indicate;
generating the threshold correlation rule based on the one or more threshold comparison inputs and the one or more breach consistency condition inputs;
processing system data associated with operating the communication network to determine KPI values corresponding to the at least one KPI;
comparing each KPI value corresponding to the at least one KPI to the threshold comparison target; and
in response to a determination that the operating state of the communication network is outside the preset performance level based on a determination that first quantity of instances within the first quantity of consecutive KPI values that the threshold comparison condition is true has been reached, causing an alert to be generated indicating that the operating state of the communication network is outside the preset performance level.
