Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
A method for provisioning automatic configurations may involve detecting a connection between a computing device and an additional computing device that runs a first protocol and is communicatively coupled to a controller via a network fabric. In one example, the method may also involve determining, via a second protocol, that the computing device is unconfigured for operation in the network fabric. Additionally or alternatively, the method may further involve enabling the controller to configure the computing device for operation in the network fabric via a provisioning mechanism in response to determining that the computing device is unconfigured for operation in the network fabric. Various other devices, systems, and methods are also disclosed.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1 . A method comprising: detecting a connection between a computing device and an additional computing device that: runs a first protocol; and is communicatively coupled to a controller via a network fabric; determining, via a second protocol, that the computing device is unconfigured for operation in the network fabric; and in response to determining that the computing device is unconfigured for operation in the network fabric, enabling the controll…
