System and method for diagnosis of misconfigurations in ethernet networks

摘要

System and method for diagnosing misconfigurations in a network are described. In one embodiment, the method comprises querying a network element for a current value of at least one parameter; determining an optimal value of the at least one parameter; comparing the current value of the at least one parameter with the optimal value of the at least one parameter; and providing a notification if a discrepancy exists between the optimal value of the at least one parameter and the current value of the at least one parameter.
