Abstract: A network configuration change validation environment is disclosed. In particular, this disclosure is related to an interface to initiate automated test actions (e.g., network monitoring commands, application monitoring commands, etc.) and to view results in an efficient manner to support a network communication infrastructure. In one example, results of a set of commands executed prior to a configuration change may serve as a baseline and one or more results of the same set of commands may be intelligently compared to the baseline to identify any potential issues that have arisen. For example, as a result of a specific network configuration change or application update. The disclosed network change validation command initiator and validation report viewer represent part of an overall network configuration change validation environment that includes automated techniques such that it may be used within a given change window.

Abstract: A network configuration development environment is disclosed. In particular, an editor configured to interface with multiple network devices simultaneously, to view and adjust their device configuration settings, is provided. The network configuration development environment allows a system administrator to manage configuration definitions (e.g., run-time or start-up device configuration parameters) relative to a plurality of network devices simultaneously to achieve correctness and appropriate consistency for each of those devices in a network infrastructure. The network development environment may include an ability to apply changes directly to one or more network devices or to apply changes to stored “configuration files” that are associated with individual devices. Changes to stored configurations may be applied automatically, for example, within a maintenance window for the network, in a controlled manner with a “roll-back” capability in the event of failure or unexpected result as a consequence of the automatically applied changes.

Abstract: A network configuration development environment including an insights enabled editor is disclosed. In particular, this disclosure is related to an editor that provides just-in-time information in an insights area to assist a network developer to configure parameter settings for one or more network devices. In one example, attributes of a switch are the area of focus of a current edit session, and, based on this area of focus, the insights editor may query the switch to obtain current information. Information returned from the switch may be provided in an “insights area” visible to the user about to edit settings for that same switch. The disclosed insights editor represents part of an overall network configuration development environment that includes automated techniques to assist with network configuration, design and maintenance.
