A computer network device (such as an access point, a switch or a router) that has multiple user interfaces is described. During operation, the computer network device may execute program instructions for the user interfaces and a shared messaging module, where a given user interface includes an agent corresponding to an application. When a message associated with the application is received via a user interface in the user interfaces, the corresponding agent in the user interface may extract a command or operation from the message. Then, the shared messaging module may translate the command or operation into a common format of the application. Moreover, the shared messaging module may provide (or route) the translated command or operation addressed to the application via a single communication path associated with the application and the agents for the application in the user interfaces.

Flexible communication-device management via multiple user interfaces

Devices, methods, and systems that provide transmitting of messages between different units of a multi-unit system in response to instantiated multi-unit transactions. For example, a method may include: identifying, by a first unit of a multi-unit system of computing devices, an event has occurred that triggers initiation of a transaction; generating, by the first unit, a transaction identifier associated with the transaction, the transaction identifier comprising a unit identifier of the first unit and an application identifier of an application associated with the event; and transmitting, from the first unit and to a second unit of the multi-unit system, the transaction identifier as part of an inter-unit message.

Transaction-based messaging and logging infrastructure for networking systems and computing devices

During operation, an electronic device may store, in memory, information associated with operation of the electronic device, such as during communication and processing of one or more packets or frames. Furthermore, an error-event monitor in the electronic device may, during a time interval, analyze at least a portion of the stored information to detect an occurrence of an error event in one or more types of error events in the electronic device. When the error event occurs during the time interval, the electronic device may perform a remedial action and may persist, in the memory, at least a second portion of the stored information associated with the error event. Otherwise, when the error event does not occur during the time interval, the electronic device may overwrite, in the memory, the stored information with additional information associated with operation of the electronic device during subsequent communicating and processing.

Proactive error capture

An electronic device is described. The electronic device includes a stack of computer network devices, such as a stack of switches and/or routers. This stack of computer network devices includes data planes and ports for directing packets or frames in a wireless network based at least in part on destinations of the packets or frames. Moreover, the electronic device may include multiple controllers (such as processors) that operate as master nodes and that perform network functions for the stack of computer network devices using a database. This database may include a common database that is accessible by the multiple controllers or multiple instances of the database in the multiple controllers, where the multiple instances of the database are synchronized.
