AUTOMATIC GENERATION OF RECONFIGURATION SCRIPTS FOR TELECOMMUNICATION DEVICES

摘要

An apparatus is programmed with a plurality of programming instructions for automatically generating a reconfiguration script comprising a plurality of configuration commands for reconfiguring a plurality of telecommunication devices of a telecommunication system, based on a current and a target descriptive image of the telecommunication system. The current descriptive image specifies the devices and their features included in the current configuration of the telecommunication system, whereas the target image specifies the devices and their features to be included in the target configuration of the communication system. The plurality of programming instructions generate the reconfiguration script employing feature dependency graph (FDG) data structures, a device model modeling the rules and behaviors of the telecommunication devices, and feature deletion/addition linklists.
