Configuration information describing a plurality of network devices in a multi- vendor, multi-class, multi-layer network is analyzed using an ontology analysis to create resource profiles comprising descriptions, configurations, inter-relationships and states of the network devices. Predefined network operational policies are applied to a virtual construct of the network created using the resource profiles determine compliance of the network with the policies. Configuration information is received dynamically and stored in a database to create a historical record of network configurations that can be analyzed to correlate configuration changes with operational changes. |
