Config Model Editor
Automate CLI and API configurations as network policy
See if Gluware Config Model Editor is right for you
Gluware® Config Model Editor provides Intent-Based configuration management for large-scale enterprise networks. The Config Modeling application rapidly automates enterprise networks by leveraging pre-existing brownfield multi-vendor configurations, bringing agility and cost savings to Network IT teams. CLI Modeling enables the rapid import of CLI-based features, turning those features into network policy. API Modeling enables Gluware to read the current data models from an API endpoint and enable intelligent configuration policy management. The network policy will then make only the changes needed declaratively for each feature across the range of supported vendors and device types. The Config Model Editor is built on API and CLI-based vendor adapters and config modeling kits with a pre-built library of capabilities for each operating system across devices including routing, switching, firewall, load-balancer, WAN optimizer and wireless LAN controller, and vendor extensions that accelerate the on-boarding of the network’s existing features without programming.
Benefits include:
- Flexible, model-driven approach enables the automation of any user-defined configuration or architecture supported by the vendor
- CLI Modeling wraps non-programmatic CLI in JSON-based data modeling that can be processed by the Gluware intelligent orchestration engine programmatically
- Gluware uses API Modeling to read in the current data models on an API endpoint, make a copy and enable declarative configuration changes
- The Gluware declarative engine will read current state, compare to the defined config policy and only make the chances necessary to implement the desired state for each configuration policy
Rapidly onboard your network configuration and policy using one of three methods:
Use Gluware to dynamically discover the configured features and create the required data-models to automate at scale
Use a workflow to step you through the process of creating a feature to automate and form-fill abstractions
Use one of the many Gluware provided feature packages and customize each feature leveraging your own CLI and network policy
