Network device modeling in preconfigured network modeling environments

A device configured to automate model creation in a preconfigured network environment, the device comprising:

• one or more processors configured to:
• interface with a network device within the preconfigured network environment to iteratively obtain one or more pre-defined configuration objects;
• for each iteration of the one or more pre-defined configuration objects:
• assign random values to the one or more pre-defined configuration objects to obtain updated configuration objects;
• perform clustering analysis with respect to the updated configuration objects to obtain groups of the updated configuration objects;
• determine adapted configuration objects as the mean of each of the groups of the updated configuration objects;
• conduct, for each iteration of the adapted configuration objects of the network device, a simulation to collect a simulation dataset representative of an operating state of the network device within the preconfigured network environment;
• and
• generate, based on the simulation datasets, a model representative of the network device that predicts, responsive to configuration parameters for the network device, the operating state of the network device when configured with the configuration parameters for the network device;
• and
• a memory configured to store the model.

A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium having stored thereon instructions that, when executed, cause one or more processors to:

• interface with a network device within the preconfigured network environment to iteratively obtain one or more pre-defined configuration objects;
• for each iteration of the one or more pre-defined configuration objects:
• assign random values to the one or more pre-defined configuration objects to obtain updated configuration objects;
• perform clustering analysis with respect to the updated configuration objects to obtain groups of the updated configuration objects;
• determine adapted configuration objects as the mean of each of the groups of the updated configuration objects;
• conduct, for each iteration of the adapted configuration objects of the network device, a simulation to collect a simulation dataset representative of an operating state of the network device within the preconfigured network environment;
• and
• generate, based on the simulation datasets, a model representative of the network device that predicts, responsive to configuration parameters for the network device, the operating state of the network device when configured with the configuration parameters for the network device.
