  • Check-pointing ACI network state and re-execution from a check-pointed state
    Patent number: 11824728
    Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer-readable media for emulating a state of a network environment for purposes of re-executing a network assurance appliance in the emulated state of the network environment. In some embodiments, a method can include receiving snapshot data for a network environment corresponding to a specific time in the network environment and including network events occurring in the network environment generated by a network assurance appliance. A state of the network environment at the specific time can be emulated using the snapshot data to create an emulated state of the network environment. Subsequently, the network assurance appliance can be re-executed in the emulated state of the network environment corresponding to the specific time and the network assurance appliance can be debugged outside of the network environment based on re-execution of the network assurance appliance in the emulated state of the network environment.
