According to certain embodiments, a provisioning manager comprises an interface and processing circuitry. The interface is configured to obtain provisioning data from a provisioning database. The processing circuitry is configured to prepare one or more configuration files based on the provisioning data. The configuration file(s) indicate how to provision one or more service instances. The processing circuitry is further configured to commit the configuration file(s) to one or more repositories in order to make the configuration file(s) available to at least one of the service instances. The processing circuitry is further configured to send one or more notifications indicating to one or more of the service instances that the configuration file(s) have been committed to the one or more repositories.

A configuration method includes: receiving, by a first device of a network, a first control message having configuration elements for activating a dynamic routing protocol in the network; configuring by the first device setup parameters for establishing sessions according to the protocol used by the first device on the basis of configuration elements included in the first message; if the configuration elements in the message include a management instruction for handling sessions according to the protocol in the network, executing by the first device the at least one management instruction; and if the configuration elements in the message include a setting for directing propagation of the configuration elements in the network, dispatching by the first device in accordance with the propagation setting at least one second control message to at least one second device of the network, which includes all or some of the configuration elements.

A method and system are provided to facilitate the commissioning of a distributed system. The method and system obtains a base configuration which defines an expected virtual topology for a distributed system, and identifies via a control device a physical network topology of the distributed system to commission the distributed system. The control device performs network discovery to identify a plurality of connected devices that are communicatively coupled thereto, and to collect device information for each connected device relating to its identity and relative position in the distributed system which has connected devices or associated subnetworks connected in a ring network topology. The collected device information for the plurality of connected devices is compared to the expected virtual topology from the base configuration to determine an identity and physical location of the plurality of connected devices and associated subnetworks in the physical network topology of the distributed system.

A controller device includes a memory configured to store a tree structure comprising a plurality of nodes, wherein the tree structure comprises a set of sub-structures, and wherein the tree structure defines a configuration of a network device of a set of network devices such that each node of the plurality of nodes corresponds to a respective resource of the network device. Additionally, the controller device includes processing circuitry configured to receive an instruction to update the configuration of the network device, wherein the instruction to update the configuration of the network device indicates a node of the set of nodes corresponding to the update; and verify, based on a sub-structure of the set of sub-structures corresponding to the node indicated by the instruction, the instruction to update the configuration of the network device.

According to certain embodiments, a provisioning manager comprises an interface and processing circuitry. The interface is configured to obtain provisioning data from a provisioning database. The processing circuitry is configured to prepare one or more configuration files based on the provisioning data and provide the one or more configuration files to the one or more service instances using file distribution technology. The one or more configuration files indicate how to provision one or more service instances used in sending or receiving electronic messages.

A method of assigning IP addresses to devices of a building control network includes receiving a selection of selected devices of a plurality of devices from a user interface. The selected devices are displayed in a predetermined order on a display. A proposed static IP address for a first device in the predetermined order of the selected devices is received from the user interface. A static IP address is sequentially assigned to each of the selected devices following the first device in accordance with the predetermined order, assuming the subnet mask has been confirmed as valid. The selected devices in the predetermined order along with the assigned static IP addresses for each of the selected devices are displayed on the display. The assigned static IP address for each of the selected devices are downloaded to the corresponding one of the selected devices.

Some embodiments provide a method for a network controller that manages multiple managed forwarding elements (MFEs) that implement multiple logical networks. The method stores (i) a first data structure including an entry for each logical entity in a desired state of the multiple logical networks and (ii) a second data structure including an entry for each logical entity referred to by an update for at least one MFE. Upon receiving updates specifying modifications to the logical entities, the method adds separate updates to separate queues for the MFEs that require the update. The separate updates reference the logical entity entries in the second data structure. When the second data structure reaches a threshold size in comparison to the first data structure, the method compacts the updates in at least one of the queues so that each queue has no more than one update referencing a particular logical entity entry.
