Abstract:
Systems, methods, and computer-readable media are disclosed for receiving a template made up of various components. Multiple stage rules are provided including action bundles as well as network device specifications. The action bundles include primary actions and stage rule execution orders for generating change controls. Generating change controls involves several steps. The network devices are enumerated based on respective network device specifications. Next, the action bundles are associated with each of the respective network devices. Finally, the change control is provided to a network management backend, and the network management backend applies the change control to the network devices.
