METHOD AND COMPUTATION UNIT FOR THE COMPUTER-AIDED CONFIGURATION OF A NETWORK

摘要

A method and a computation unit for configuring a plurality of physical nodes of a network to be created using a virtual network are proposed. The virtual network comprises a virtual node for each physical mode. The method comprises the following steps: creating the virtual network on the basis of the network to be created, wherein a configuration is determined for each virtual node; determining a feature vector for each virtual node, wherein the feature vector determined comprises neighbourhood information relating to neighbouring nodes of the virtual node and an item of type information relating to a node type of the virtual node; changing the virtual network if at least two determined feature vectors are identical, with the result that each virtual node is uniquely assigned to a physical node; and loading the configuration of each virtual node onto the respective assigned physical node. This enables fast and efficient planning, development and, in particular, automatic implementation of networks. A computer program product and a data storage medium are also proposed.
