System and method for providing configuration updates to network functions in a communication network

A system for providing a configuration update to a plurality of network functions of a predetermined network function type in a communication network;

• the system comprising:
• a memory that stored one or more computer readable media that include instructions;
• and
• one or more processor devices configured to execute the instructions of the computer readable media to:
• receive a selection of a master network function from the plurality of network functions of the predetermined network function type;
• apply the configuration update to the master network function;
• provide the configuration update from the master network function to a set of slave network functions from the plurality of network functions of the predetermined network function type;
• receive a status of the configuration update for each of the slave network functions in the set of slave network functions;
• and
• display the status of the configuration update for each of the slave network functions in the set of slave network functions.

A non-transitory, computer-readable medium storing instructions, that, when executed by an electronic processor, perform a set of functions, the set of functions comprising:

• receiving a selection of a master network function from a plurality of network functions of a predetermined network function type in a communication network;
• applying the configuration update to the master network function;
• providing the configuration update from the master network function to a set of slave network functions from the plurality of network functions of the predetermined network function type;
• receiving, using the master network function, a status of the configuration update for each of the slave network functions in the set of slave network functions;
• and
• displaying the status of the configuration update for each of the slave network functions in the set of slave network functions.
