Abstract
In an embodiment, a method of network deployment involves at a cloud server, determining a planned network design for a network to be deployed at a customer site, at the cloud server, receiving network device information and location information of a network device after the network device is deployed at the customer site, and at the cloud server, automatically performing network deployment deviation detection for the network device based on the planned network design and the network device information and the location information of the network device.
Claims19
A method of network deployment, the method comprising:
- at a cloud server, determining a planned network design for a network to be deployed at a customer site;
- at the cloud server, receiving network device information and location information of a network device after the network device is deployed at the customer site;
- at an installer device, receiving an installation job for deploying a network at a customer site;
- at the installer device, scanning a code of a network device at the customer site to obtain network device information;
- and
- at the cloud server, automatically performing network deployment deviation detection, which includes network deployment location deviation detection and, network deployment topology deviation detection, network deployment addition or omission deviation detection, and network deployment hardware deviation detection, for the network device based on the planned network design and the network device information and the location information of the network device;
- and
- from the cloud server, reporting a network deployment location deviation, a network deployment topology deviation, a network deployment addition or omission deviation, or a network deployment hardware deviation to an operator when the network deployment location deviation, the network deployment topology deviation, the network deployment addition or omission deviation, or the network deployment hardware deviation is detected at the cloud server.
