Abstract:
A device may include one more processors to receive designed network information corresponding to a designed network; generate a data graph corresponding to a topology of the designed network based on the designed network information; receive discovered network information corresponding to discovered network devices of a discovered network; generate a query graph corresponding to the discovered network based on the discovered network information; perform a validation analysis of a topology of the discovered network relative to the topology of the designed network based on the data graph and the query graph; and/or perform an action based on a result of the validation analysis.
