    Abstract: A system and method are provided which facilitate peer-to-peer collaborative network monitoring. The system deploys a network-monitoring agent on a device and discovers peer devices on a same local network absent of receiving a cloud-orchestrated instruction. Responsive to successful direct communication with a server, the device obtains a configuration file, which indicates network metrics to be monitored and a condition associated with a network metric. Responsive to unsuccessful direct communication, the device obtains the configuration file via a peer device. The device monitors the indicated network metrics. If the condition is met, the system performs a predetermined action. Responsive to successful direct communication, the device transmits data associated with the monitored metrics and the action. Responsive to unsuccessful direct communication, the device transmits the data via a peer device, thereby allowing the server to display, in connection with a network topology, aggregated network monitoring data for the network devices.
