NETWORK STATE ASSESSMENTS

Verify the operating conditions that matter to a change.

Define CLI/API state checks for on-demand assessment, provisioning pre/post checks, and Network RPA tasks.

Verify the operating conditions that matter to a change.

THE BUSINESS NEED

Institute repeatable checks for every action.

A configuration can look correct while an interface, protocol, or other operating condition is wrong. Engineers need repeatable checks that establish what is happening on the device before and after work, or during troubleshooting. Gluware makes those checks reusable within the change process.

A configuration can look correct while an interface, protocol, or other operating condition is wrong.

HOW THE CAPABILITY WORKS

How Gluware delivers network state assessments

Define the assessment

CME (Config Model Editor) owns CLI/API state assessment definitions. Select the supported device operation and the conditions to inspect, such as interface or protocol state, and define the expected result.

Evaluate the captured output

Use assessment policy expressions and optional assessment queries to select and evaluate the required information. The assessment establishes only the conditions covered by those checks.

Run in the right context

Run assessments on demand, during provisioning as pre/post checks, or through a Network RPA task. RPA can coordinate an assessment with an OS Plan, service step, or other supported operation.

Review and act on the result

Review assessment output and logs, compare the result with the defined requirement, and route failures through the designed process. CME provisioning or OS Manager performs a selected corrective operation.

Measure assessed coverage, failed conditions, and verification time.

THE BUSINESS Value

Ensure validated operational outcomes.

Measure assessed coverage, failed conditions, and verification time. Reusable assessments help teams detect change-related problems and make troubleshooting more consistent; the checks must match the service or operating condition the business needs protected.

WHAT DELIVERS THIS CAPABILITY

Several components.
One operational capability.

Each component has a defined role in the process. Explore the reference pages for its functions and boundaries.

Config Model Editor

Owns CLI/API state assessment definitions, evaluation, and provisioning checks.

Network RPA

Invokes and coordinates assessment tasks with other operations.

Device Manager

Supplies device context and the target fleet.

DIAL

Provides supported device interaction for the assessment.
