  • Publication number: 20230336400
    Abstract: Problem Diagnosis Automation System (PDAS) automates the diagnosis of repetitive problems and the enforcement of preventive measures across a network. Automation assets across the network include Network Intent (NI) inside the no-code platform. A Network Intent Cluster (NIC) clones a NI across the network to create a group of NIs (member NIs) with the same design or logic. A subset of Member NIs can be executed according to user-defined conditions based on the member device, the member NI tags, or signature variables. A Triggered Automation Framework (TAF) matches the incoming API calls from a 3rd party system to current incidents and installs the automation (e.g., NI/NIC) to be triggered for each call. It may include: Integrated IT System defining the scope and data of the incoming API calls; Incident Type to match a call to an Incident; and Triggered Diagnosis to define what and how the NIC/NI is executed.

  • Publication number: 20220393942
    Abstract: A system is disclosed for network management automation using network intent or adaptive monitoring automation. Network intent (NI) represents a network design and baseline configuration for that network or network devices with an ability to diagnose deviation from the baseline configuration. The NI can be automated to update and replicate the diagnosis. The monitoring of the network can be adapted to capture network problems in advance with adaptive monitoring automation.
