    Abstract: A computer-implemented method includes receiving, at a client device, a plurality of monitors each including at least one resource related to a network device; automatically displaying, on the client device, a subset of the plurality of monitors including the at least one resource on a first time series chart based on a pre-determined risk factor; at least one of (1) selecting, using the client device, at least one monitor not included in the subset and included in the plurality of monitors, and (2) un-selecting, using the client device, at least one monitor included in the subset, and thereby obtain a customized set of monitors and resources; accessing, using the client device, a time series database associated to the network device to query for data related to resources included in the customized set of monitors; and displaying, on the client device, the customized set of monitors and the included resources on a second time series chart.

    Abstract: Methods for systems are provided. In one aspect, a method for minimizing a network outage includes identifying one or more paths connecting a resource node of the network to an edge switch of one or more edge switches of the network. Each edge switch is connected to one or more endpoint devices to allow resources coupled to the resource node to be provided to the one or more endpoint devices. The method further includes calculating endpoint downtime costs corresponding to rebooting each of the common switches in the network. The common switches are present in all paths connecting the resource node to the edge switch. The calculated endpoint downtime costs corresponding to the one or more common switches are compared. One of the common switches with a highest endpoint downtime cost is identified as a candidate switch for redundancy based on the comparison.

    Abstract: In some examples, a method includes accessing an orthogonal network policy set that represents a first intent-based network policy and a second intent-based network policy. The method may also include determining multiple reduced orthogonal network policy sets from the orthogonal network policy set. The multiple reduced orthogonal network policy sets may differ from one another, and each represent the first and second intent-based network policies. The method may further include selecting a particular reduced orthogonal network policy set among the multiple reduced orthogonal network policy sets to implement on a target switching device.

    Abstract: The system determines a syntax for each line in a switch configuration file. The system creates, based on the syntax, one or more groups of line specifications, wherein each line specification in a group includes matching terms or values specified by a user. The system generates and deploys a new configuration to a first device. The system obtains one or more changed lines by determining a difference between a pre-deployment state and a post-deployment state. The system identifies, based on the created groups of line specifications and a set of criteria, other devices to which to deploy the new configuration. A user selects a device of the identified other devices to which to deploy the new configuration. The system deploys the new configuration to the selected device and validates the deployed new configuration. The system displays a second list which indicates whether the deployed new configuration is successfully validated.

    Abstract: Disclosed is a method and system to obtain a structured grammar, based on a restricted language (e.g., a known subset of a full language such as a computer language) that may assist with automated parsing and correlation of configuration files conforming to the structured grammar. Once obtained, a plurality of different network device configuration documents (e.g., config file information) may be parsed to create a scaffold view using slots for correlated data across the plurality of different network devices. For example, the scaffold view may include populated branches of the scaffold representative of the plurality of different network device configuration documents. Maintaining a correlation of source data to changes in a single view based on the scaffolding may be used to comprehensively view and edit configuration information.

    Abstract: An example method is described for monitoring a network. The method includes detecting that a network attribute has been updated at a network device. The method further includes selecting, based in part on the updated network attribute, a set of network functionality tests from a group of network functionality tests. The method further includes executing the set of network functionality tests. The method further includes receiving information describing functionality of the network during the set of network functionality tests at the network device. The method further includes determining results of the set of network functionality tests based on the information describing functionality of the network. The method further includes calculating a network functionality score based, in part, on the results of the set of network functionality tests.

    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.
