Abstract

In a preferred embodiment, the present invention provides a method and a system for designing and verifying a physical network configuration (Fig. 3B) is capable of supporting a functional network configuration (Fig. 4B) without having to actually establish such networks. The present invention allows a user to input a hardware network design and a functional network design into a computer system (900). Utilizing the functional network design, the computer system then models the route taken by the data to travel from a first transceiver to a second transceiver over the network, while also determining those resource requirements, such as bandwidth, needed to support such data flow through the hardware network design. Upon determining routes for each connection specified in the functional network design, and determining resource requirements associated therewith at each hardware devices effected, the present invention analyzes the maximum resource capabilities of each hardware device with respect to those resources needed at such device and determines whether such hardware configuration can support the functional design. In a second embodiment, the present invention recommends changes to the hardware necessary to support the functional design and vice versa. In a third embodiment, a computer system (1600) implementing the present invention configures the various network devices specified in the hardware network design upon verifying the hardware design supports the functional design.
