Towards Automated Auditing for Network Configuration Changes

Posted: 14 May 2011 10:39 PM PDT

IP network operators face the challenge of making and managing low-level device configuration changes to accommodate the rapidly evolving needs of IP  networks. As a first step towards automating this task, we explore a data-driven approach to audit high-level change activity in IP networks, by  reverse engineering low-level longitudinal configuration data. We demonstrate the utility [...]
