Abstract
Configuring a network topology can be a resource-intensive task. Services that may be “snapped-in” to a particular network often require physical alternations to the topology of the network. The topology may be remotely altered by providing an override datum to a configuration device such that a seed value for a datum is replaced and, as a result, the topology of the network altered to provide a particular service. As a benefit, one or more networks may have their physical topology remotely reconfigured with a single alteration of a datum.
Claims20
A system, comprising:
- a processor comprising electrical circuitry;
- a data storage, accessible to the processor;
- a network interface, accessible to the processor and connecting the processor to a network;
- and
- wherein the processor:
- provides a telecommunication service for telecommunication devices on the network and is configured to provide the telecommunication service utilizing a configured network topology of the network and the topology of the network is determined, at least in part, to by a datum of the telecommunication service, the datum having a seed value;
- receiving, via the network interface, an override datum;
- after receiving the override datum, replacing the value of the datum with the value of the override datum and providing the telecommunications service utilizing the configured network topology of the network as determined by the present value of the datum.

A system, comprising:
- a processor;
- a data storage, accessible to the processor;
- a network interface, accessible to the processor and connecting the processor to a networked component;
- and
- wherein the processor remotely, via the network interface, configures a network of components, comprising:
- accessing the networked component, the network component configures a telecommunication service for telecommunication devices on the network and is configured to provide the telecommunication service utilizing a configured network topology of the network and the topology of the network is determined, at least in part, to by a datum of the telecommunication service, the datum having a seed value;
- and
- providing an override datum to the networked component whereby after receiving the override datum, the networked component replaces the value of the datum with the value of the override datum and thereby provides the telecommunications service utilizing the configured network topology of the network as determined by the present value of the datum.
5 more elements
A method, comprising:
- configuring a network determined by a topology, the topology being determined by a networked component, the networked component determining a telecommunications service provided by the network topology and, wherein the topology is determined by a datum having a seed value;
- providing, an override datum to the networked component;
- and
- upon receiving the override datum, replacing the value of the datum with the value of the override datum and providing the telecommunications service utilizing a reconfigured network topology of the network as determined by the present value of the datum.
