Abstract: In general, techniques are described that provide an analysis system for analyzing a software-defined networking (SDN) architecture system. The analysis system comprising the processing circuitry configured to obtain operational data representative of one or more of configuration, operation, and maintenance of the SDN architecture system. The processing circuitry may identify dependencies between the operational data that identify dependencies between objects representative of the configuration, operation, and maintenance of the SDN architecture system. The processing circuitry may perform, while traversing the dependences between the operational data, analysis with respect to the operational data in order to identify potential issues in the SDN architecture system, and output the potential issues in the SDN architecture system.

Abstract: A method includes deploying a network device within a fabric having a management network by attaching the network device through the management network to a port of a role allocator, wherein the role allocator includes one or more ports designated as first level port connections and one or more other ports designated as second level port connections. If the deployed network device is attached to one of the ports designated as first level port connections, the deployed network device is configured as a first level device. If the deployed network device is attached to one of the ports designated as second level port connections, the deployed network device is configured as a second level device.

Abstract: An example application programming interface (API) server device that distributes configuration data to managed network devices includes one or more processing units implemented in circuitry and configured to receive configuration data to be deployed to at least one of the managed network devices; store the configuration data to a configuration database; and send the configuration data to the at least one of the managed network devices. In this manner, the configuration data can be archived for later retrieval and analysis, e.g., to perform root cause analysis in the event of an error.

Abstract: A system for configuring a data center includes a fabric management server coupled to a management switch. A provisional Software Defined Networking (SDN) controller executing on the fabric management server can discover physical servers coupled to the management switch, receive network interface configuration information from the physical servers, and use the discovered network interface configuration information to determine a configuration for switches and servers coupled to an IP fabric. The configuration can be migrated to a full functionality SDN controller.

Abstract: In general, techniques are described for a creating a virtual network router within a software defined network (SDN) architecture. A network controller for the SDN architecture system may include processing circuitry that is configured to execute a configuration node and a control node. The configuration node may process a request by which to create a virtual network router (VNR), where the virtual network router may cause the network controller to interconnect a first virtual network (VN) and a second VN. The VNR may represent a logical abstraction of one or more policies that cause import and/or export of routing information between the first VN and the second VN. The control node configures the first VN and the second VN according to the one or more policies to enable the import and/or the export of routing information between the first VN and the second VN via the VNR.

Abstract: In general, techniques are described for leveraging a configuration framework for an orchestration platform to configure software that implements a control plane for a containerized network router in a cloud-native SDN architecture. In an example, a method comprises receiving, by a server executing a containerized routing protocol process, configuration data generated from a Network Resource configuration object managed by a custom resource controller; configuring, by the server, the containerized routing protocol process with the configuration data; and programming, by the containerized routing protocol process, based on the configuration data generated from the Network Resource configuration object, a virtual router data plane to forward network traffic.

Abstract: In an example, a method includes processing, by an application programming interface (API) server implemented by a configuration node of a network controller for a software-defined networking (SDN) architecture system, requests for operations on native resources of a container orchestration system; processing, by a custom API server implemented by the configuration node, requests for operations on custom resources for SDN architecture configuration, wherein each of the custom resources for SDN architecture configuration corresponds to a type of configuration object in the SDN architecture system; detecting, by a control node of the network controller, an event on an instance of a first custom resource of the custom resources; and by the control node, in response to detecting the event on the instance of the first custom resource, obtaining configuration data for the instance of the first custom resource and configuring a corresponding instance of a configuration object in the SDN architecture.
