Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure relate to systems and methods that help automate the generation of a test vector. Every functional product, be it a service, device, or combination thereof, has one or more documents associated with it. These documents may include such documentation as: (1) Release Notes; (2) Configuration Guides; (3) command line interfaces (CLIs)/application program interfaces (APIs); (4) Data Sheets; (5) Installation Guides; (6) User Manuals; (7) Errata notices; and (8) other documentation. In embodiments, command data-models and ranges and sequence of valid inputs to the data-model are extracted from natural language expressions in documentation related to a specific product. In embodiments, this extracted information is used to generate one or more table of attributes and properties or constraints about which a test vector may be generated for testing a command.

Abstract: Aspects of the present invention provide a more universal, easy, natural, and vendor-agnostic interface to configure, manage, and/or monitor devices in networks. In embodiments, a user-friendly natural language interface voice interface may be used to “live chat” with one or more devices. In embodiments, a natural language input from a user intended for a target device is received and converted into one or more properly formed commands that are target-specific for the target device and may be executed by the target device. In embodiments, results from the execution of the one or more commands may be appropriately formatted for presentation to the user.

Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure related to systems and methods that help automate the detection of errors in technical documentation. Every functional product, be it a service, device, or combination thereof, has one or more supporting documents associated with that product. These supporting documents may include such documentation as: (1) Release Notes; (2) Configuration Guides; (3) command line interfaces (CLIs)/application program interfaces (APIs); (4) Data Sheets; (5) Installation Guides; (6) User Manuals; (7) Errata notices; and (8) other documentation. It is important that the information provided in such documents, particularly the commands, be correct. In embodiments, a document verification system may be used to automatically extracted commands from technical documentation.

Abstract: Systems and apparatuses are disclosed having a 3×8 stacked RJ45 connector with an integrated LEDs option for a 1U product form factor to provide increased density of an RJ45 connector which utilizes open source and non-proprietary modular connectors in conformity with published standards. For example, in one embodiment such systems and apparatuses include a networking component having therein a connector which includes a plurality of RJ45 jacks arranged into exactly three horizontal rows and a plurality of vertical columns; a printed circuit board to electrically interface with each of the plurality of RJ45 jacks; and a 1× Rack Unit (1U) chassis having the connector and printed circuit board therein, in which at least a portion of the connector extends into a horizontal plane occupied by the printed circuit board. Rack systems and methods are further described for employing such a networking component.
