  • NETWORK MANAGEMENT WITH TOPOLOGY DEPENDENCY AND PATH GENERATION
    Publication number: 20210021492
    Abstract: A system manages a network using a graphical user interface (GUI) that maps the network. The mapping includes a topology of network layers and includes the generation of a path through the network, which may use virtualization technology. The path may be an AB network path that is automatically discovered and may be compared with a golden path.

  • System, apparatus, and method for filtering network configuration information
    Patent number: 8386937
    Abstract: Methods to match certain context of commands directed to a network technology or a network design from configuration files and a user interface to display these results. A language with the simple syntax similar to the human language is provided. The language includes rules to define the parameter and syntax for the parameter operations and also standard functions to parse commands. A script file can be conveniently written in this language to filter the desired contexts from a configuration file. In the exemplary embodiment, the system translates the script file to an executable standard Perl programming and Perl programming is run with the configuration file as the input. The result is displayed in the graphic user interface, which is designed to work with an interactive network topology map.
