Patent number: 11979281Abstract: Techniques are disclosed for managing a network. In one example, a device configuration manager is configured to generate, in accordance with a device management protocol, a configuration change request representing a transaction having a first sub-transaction specifying a first configuration change for a network device of the network and a second sub-transaction specifying a second configuration change for the same network device. The device configuration manager is further configured to output the configuration change request to the network device and receive a reply message from the network device. The reply message includes a first response element specifying whether the first configuration change is successfully committed at the network device and a second response element specifying whether the second configuration change is successfully committed at the network device.Type: GrantFiled: March 29, 2022Date of Patent: May 7, 2024Assignee: Juniper Networks, Inc.Inventors: Chandrasekhar A, Nirmal Anburose, Jayanthi R

Publication number: 20230308348Abstract: Network elements are managed with a server to support client data models from heterogeneous data sources. A server receives a first query for configuration data of a network element to be returned in a first model. The server determines a model type for the configuration data of the network element. When the model type is a second model that is not the first model, the server sends a second query to the network element for the configuration data to be returned in the second model and transforms the configuration data received from the network element into the first model. Additionally, the server returns the configuration data in the first model as a response to the first query.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 2, 2023Publication date: September 28, 2023Inventors: Chandrasekhar A., Jayanthi R., Cyril Margaria

Publication number: 20230198975Abstract: A system determines identification information associated with an endpoint device, which is associated with a tenant of the system, and the tenant. The system generates and sends, to the endpoint device, a certificate that includes the identification information. The system receives, from the endpoint device and as part of an attempt by the endpoint device to initiate a dial-out communication session with the system, the certificate. The system causes, based on the certificate, the dial-out communication session to be established and processes the certificate to determine the identification information. The system receives, from the endpoint device and via the dial-out communication session, one or more messages; modifies the one or more messages to include the identification information; and provides the one or more modified messages to facilitate provisioning of services or resources associated with the system to the endpoint device.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 29, 2022Publication date: June 22, 2023Inventors: Chandrasekhar A., Bhaskar T.
