System and method for enhanced network event monitoring and reporting
A device may detect an event associated with a user device. The event may include at least one of a data reachability event, a loss of connectivity event, or a loss of reachability event. The device may determine, based on detecting the event, event information associated with the event. The event information may include information that identifies a type of a packet data network (PDN) connection when the event includes a data reachability event. The event information may include information that identifies a reason for detachment from a network when the event includes a loss of connectivity event. The event information may include information indicating that one or more PDN connections have been closed when the event includes a loss of reachability event. The device may provide the event information for reporting to one or more devices that are to receive event reports associated with the user device.
