摘要: The development and maintenance of network device configurations is one the central challenges faced by large providers. Current management systems fail to meet this challenge primarily because their inability adapt rapidly evolving customer provider-network needs, mismatches between conceptual models tools services they must support. In paper, we present Presto configuration system that attempts address these failings in a comprehensive flexible way. Developed for used during last 5 years within ISP network, constructs device-native based on composition configlets representing different or service options. Configlets are compiled extracting manipulating data from external as directed scripting template language. We outline needs large-scale providers, introduce PRESTO language, reflect upon our experiences developing configured VPN VoIP services. doing so, describe how promotes healthy practices.
