Abstract: An information handling system validates a network configuration. The information handling system includes a network interface in communication with a network of devices. The information handling system also includes a predefined set of valid device attributes, stored in a computer-usable medium. In addition, the information handling system includes processing resources in communication with the network interface and the computer-usable medium. The processing resources receive user input requesting a validation process and, in response, automatically communicate with the devices via the network interface to discover attributes of the devices. The processing resources also automatically compare the discovered attributes with the predefined set of valid device attributes, and the processing resources generate output data that indicates whether the discovered attributes match the valid device attributes.
