Abstract: A processing system deployed in a communication network may detect a condition for merging at least a first logical network of the communication network and a second logical network of the communication network. The first logical network may be reserved for use by at least a first plurality of endpoint devices of at least a first public service entity, and the second logical network is reserved for use by at least a second plurality of endpoint devices of at least a second entity. The processing system may then merge the first logical network and the second logical network to create a merged logical network, in response to the detecting of the condition.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices are provided herein for a mechanism to identify link down reasons. As described herein, a first port of a first peer device may be determined to have unexpectedly changed to a port down state. Subsequently, a topology file may be referenced to identify a second port of a second peer device with which the first peer device is intended to have a link if not for the first port being in a port down state. In some examples, port settings of the first port may be compared with port settings of the second port. If a port setting for the first port mismatches an associated port setting for the second port, an alert message may be transmitted to a network administrator indicating this mismatch as a possible reason for the first port being in the port down state.

The method receives configuration data for a particular logical networking entity implemented at the host computer. The method identifies that the configuration data for the particular logical networking entity includes at least two conflicting configuration settings for the particular logical networking entity. At least one of the configuration settings for the particular logical networking entity is based on association of a configuration profile to a group of logical entities that includes the particular logical networking entity. The method determines a particular one of the conflicting configuration settings with a highest priority to apply to the particular logical networking entity at the host computer.

Abstract: A method and system for outcome-based workload configurations for IT environments. Existing solutions directed to implementing multi-tier configurations on bare-metal IT infrastructure tend to require specialized tools and skills on a tier-by-tier basis. A more unified approach, where a single or singleton configuration that defines and implements the desired state (or outcome) of one or more tiers, is sought and thus proposed. Within this disclosure, implementation of workload deployment policies, is emphasized.
