Abstract: A set of network requirements is received. At least a portion of the set of network requirements is stored on a system data store. Device requirements for a plurality of network devices are stored on the system data store. At least a portion of the stored device requirements is received at a proxy agent. Native hardware instructions are generated based on the received device requirements to configure at least one of the plurality of network devices.

Abstract: Constraints are stored. A plurality of processing stages is processed. For at least one of the plurality of processing stages, an input declarative requirement is utilized with at least some of the constraints to determine an output declarative requirement that is at a different level than a level of the input declarative requirement. At least a portion of the plurality of processing stages are utilized to at least in part automatically configure a computer network.

Abstract: Configuring a network is disclosed. A set of network requirements is received at an interaction agent. At least a portion of the set of network requirements is published to a system data store. The published network requirements are received at an application agent. The application agent has subscribed to the published network requirements published in the system data store. Device requirements for a plurality of network devices are published to the system data store. At least a portion of the published device requirements is received at a proxy agent. Native hardware instructions are generated based on the received device requirements to configure at least one of the plurality of network devices.

Abstract: A network is configured. Constraints are stored. A plurality of processing stages is processed. For at least one of the plurality of processing stages, an application agent utilizes an input declarative requirement with at least some of the constraints to determine an output declarative requirement that is at a lower level than a level of the input declarative requirement. Each processing stage corresponds to an interaction agent that is able to specify the input declarative requirement for that stage.
