ABSTRACT:
A programmable configuration management infrastructure is provided. The programmable configuration management infrastructure employs Programmable Configuration Requests (PCRs) to perform configuration management over a definable target list of field-installed managed communication equipment subject to a definable schedule and configuration management policies. The programmable configuration management infrastructure provides for monitoring of configuration command execution and traps errors. In the event of detecting configuration command execution errors, the programmable configuration management infrastructure provides for restoring the configuration either for all targets processed or for the targets experiencing errors only as specified in the PCR definition. Recourse may be made to the validation of configuration change or configuration restoration commands as specified in the PCR definition. Configuration management policies may be employed to limit configuration management to specific time frames as well the rate at which configuration commands are issued may be tailored to prevent overuse of resources. Benefits are derived from programmable configuration management functionality based on which programmable configuration applications can be built with ease while ensuring reduced configuration management overheads and error contingency processing.
