Methods and Systems for Deploying Networks

A computer system, comprising:

• one or more processors;
• and
• memory having instructions stored thereon, which when executed by the one or more processors cause the processors to perform operations for:
• obtaining a network design file including network information of a network, the network including a plurality of network devices coupled to one another using a plurality of virtual connections in the network design file;
• extracting, from the network design file, information of the plurality of virtual connections including a source port label of a source device and a destination port label of a destination device corresponding to each virtual connection;
• collecting cable information of a set of one or more cables that are connected in the network deployed based on the network design file;
• determining that each of the set of one or more cables corresponds to a respective virtual connection in the network design file;
• comparing the cable information of each of the set of one or more cables and information of the respective virtual connection extracted from the network design file;
• and
• automatically presenting network deployment information of the network that is deployed.

A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium, having instructions stored thereon, which when executed by one or more processors of a computer system cause the processors to perform operations for:

• obtaining a network design file including network information of a network, the network including a plurality of network devices coupled to one another using a plurality of virtual connections in the network design file;
• extracting, from the network design file, information of the plurality of virtual connections including a source port label of a source device and a destination port label of a destination device corresponding to each virtual connection;
• collecting cable information of a set of one or more cables that are connected in the network deployed based on the network design file;
• determining that each of the set of one or more cables corresponds to a respective virtual connection in the network design file;
• comparing the cable information of each of the set of one or more cables and information of the respective virtual connection extracted from the network design file;
• and
• automatically presenting network deployment information of the network that is deployed.
