  • Patent number: 11159374
    Abstract: Systems and methods for generating a visual display of a topology of servers, user input may be received for updating configurations of impacted servers.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: May 28, 2020
    Date of Patent: October 26, 2021
    Assignee: Red Hat, Inc.
    Inventors: Benjamin Thomasson, Peter Sprygada
  • Patent number: 10887192
    Abstract: Systems and methods for generating a graphical user interface representation of a network topology using discovery parameters. An example method includes receiving, from a client, user input requesting the graphical user interface representation of the network topology. Discovery parameters for discovering a plurality of nodes in the network may be determined from the user input. First network configuration information may be retrieved from the first node determined from discovery parameters. The configuration information may describe a first subset of the plurality of nodes connected to the first node. A second node may be identified from the first subset. Second network configuration information may be retrieved from the second node, which describes a second subset of the plurality of nodes connected to the second node. The graphical user interface representation may be generated from the network configuration information.

  • Patent number: 10680891
    Abstract: Systems and methods for generating a visual display of a network topology, user input may be received for updating configurations of impacted nodes. An example method may include identification of nodes within the network topology. The nodes may represent networked devices within the network topology. A graphical user interface of the network topology including the nodes and interconnectivity between nodes may be generated. The graphical user interface may be provided a client device for display. One or more changes to the network topology may be made using the graphical user interface. Based on the changes, one or more impacted nodes may be determined and configuration values for components of the impacted nodes may be determined. Configuration instructions to update configurations for the components of the impacted nodes may be generated. The configuration instructions may be provided to a server to implement the changes to the impacted nodes.
