One example method of operation may include determining a network mode of operation designated by a managing device communicatively coupled to a plurality of network devices, identifying whether one or more of the plurality of network devices are violating one or more compliance measures associated with the network mode of operation, and determining via the managing device whether to accept the network configuration or reject the network configuration based on whether one or more of the compliance measures are violated.

Dynamic network configuration during device installation

One example method of operation may include identifying data traffic, intended for a network element, received on one or more switch ports of a switch, identifying additional data traffic received on the one or more switch ports, which is to be rendered and played on an audio device attached to the one or more switch ports, forwarding the data traffic to the network element on a first switch port, and outputting the additional data traffic as audio on a second port to a loudspeaker attached to the second port.

Switch with data switching and audio data termination capabilities

One example method of operation may include receiving at a managing device an indication whether a first network device is a known network device, identifying a selected network mode of operation stored in memory of the managing device, and determining whether to cancel the selected network mode of operation based on whether the first network device is a known device.

One example method of operation may include identifying data traffic on one or more ports of a switch, determining whether a protocol specific packet type is identified on any of the one or more ports, assigning one or more first ports with data traffic to a first protocol when the protocol specific packet type is identified, and assigning one or more second ports with data traffic to a second protocol different from the first protocol.
