Abstract: The disclosure provides an approach for providing an extendable system health management framework in a network. Embodiments include receiving, by a manager, a system health plugin. Embodiments include determining, by the manager, an association between the system health plugin and a host in the network based on the host satisfying one or more conditions. Embodiments include providing, by the manager, the system health plugin to the host for installation in a system health agent on the host. Embodiments include receiving, by the manager, from the host, status information for the system health plugin.

Abstract: Example methods and systems for intent-based network virtualization design are disclosed. One example may comprise: obtaining configuration information and traffic information associated with multiple virtualized computing instances, processing the configuration information and traffic information to identify network connectivity intents and mapping the network connectivity intents to a logical network topology template. Based on a first switching intent, a first group may be assigned to a first logical network domain and the logical network topology template configured to include a first logical switching element. Based on a second switching intent, a second group may be assigned to a second logical network domain and the logical network topology template configured to include a second logical switching element. Based on a routing intent, the logical network topology template may be configured to include a logical routing element.

Abstract: Some embodiments provide a method for assigning different service path identifiers to each of a set of different service paths along each of which a same set of service operations are performed on a set of packets. The method retrieves an available service path identifier from an identifier storage that stores service path identifiers for multiple service paths. The method generates a set of proposed service path identifiers based on the retrieved available service path identifier and the number of service paths in the set of service paths. The method performs a write operation on the identifier storage based on the set of proposed service path identifiers, and based on a determination that the write operation was successful, assigns the set of proposed service path identifiers to the set of service paths. Based on the set of service path identifiers, the method forwards the set of packets along the set of service paths.

Abstract: Example methods and systems for intent-based network virtualization design are disclosed. One example may comprise: obtaining configuration information and traffic information associated with multiple virtualized computing instances, processing the configuration information and traffic information to identify network connectivity intents and mapping the network connectivity intents to a logical network topology template. Based on a switching intent, a first group may be assigned to a logical network domain and the logical network topology template modified to include a logical switching element. Based on a routing intent, the logical network topology template may be modified to include a logical routing element. A logical network may be configured based on the modified logical network topology template to satisfy the switching intent and routing intent.
