    Current Scenario: Network administrators typically configure individual network devices using configuration interfaces that vary between vendors—and even between different products from the same vendor. Although some network-management tools offer a central vantage point for configuring the network, these systems still operate at the level of individual protocols, mechanisms, and configuration interfaces. This mode of operation has slowed innovation, increased complexity, and inflated both the capital and the operational costs of running a network.
