Abstract

A system and method for managing and performing network configurations is described. In one embodiment, an assembler can look up the customer's account and identify the network devices that are both required for a requested transaction. Using the knowledge data models (KDM) for the identified network devices, the assembler can determine which resources are available. For each relevant resource, the assembler can gather the appropriate configuration schemata from the KDMs. The assembler can then identify the parameters within the network resource's schemata that are configurable, select the correct configuration for those parameters, and build the necessary configuration instructions based upon the business rules defined by the customer. These configuration instructions could then be pushed to the appropriate network devices.
