Patent number: 10868833Abstract: Techniques for configuring a network based on a Domain Name System (DNS) or network metadata policy for network control are disclosed. In some embodiments, a system, process, and/or computer program product for a DNS or network metadata policy for network control includes receiving a DNS or network metadata update at a DNS server (e.g., an authoritative or recursive DNS server) or an IP Address Management (IPAM) server, in which the DNS or network metadata update is determined to be relevant to the DNS or network metadata policy for network control; and sending the DNS or network metadata update to a network controller for a network, in which the network controller configures a plurality of network devices on the network based on the DNS or network metadata policy for network control.Type: GrantFiled: June 23, 2017Date of Patent: December 15, 2020Inventors: John Dominic Belamaric, Soheil Eizadi, John Charles Voss

Patent number: 9749361Abstract: In some embodiments, a security device controller (SDC) is provided. In some embodiments, a security device controller includes receiving a configuration policy in a vendor neutral language; and automatically configuring a plurality of security devices on a heterogeneous network based on the configuration policy. For example, the plurality of security devices can include physical, virtual, or software defined network (SDN) based routers and/or firewalls, and the heterogeneous network can include security devices from a plurality of different vendors.Type: GrantFiled: March 30, 2017Date of Patent: August 29, 2017Assignee: Infoblox Inc.Inventors: Jason A. Kirby, John Dominic Belamaric, Francois J. Tur, Christophe Troillard

Patent number: 9065738Abstract: The impact of device configuration changes on operational issues and policy compliance in a computer network can be discerned from a visual data presentation that jointly shows representations of changes, issues, and policy compliance in a common view for a group of network devices. Configuration information is collected from devices in the computer network and processed to determine whether a change has occurred in a configuration of any of the devices, whether any operational issues exist for each of the devices, and whether any of the devices are not in compliance with any applicable operational policies. A display device displays the visual data presentation to allow an operator to see trends and relationships between device configuration changes and operational issues and incidents of policy non-compliance. The visual data presentation can be depicted as a graphical timeline view, a network topology view, or a table view of the information.Type: GrantFiled: October 24, 2013Date of Patent: June 23, 2015Assignee: Infoblox Inc.Inventors: James D. Ennis, Jr., Fiore Louis Nardo, II, John Dominic Belamaric
