Abstract

A network configuration development environment including an insights enabled editor is disclosed. In particular, this disclosure is related to an editor that provides just-in-time information in an insights area to assist a network developer to configure parameter settings for one or more network devices. In one example, attributes of a switch are the area of focus of a current edit session, and, based on this area of focus, the insights editor may query the switch to obtain current information. Information returned from the switch may be provided in an 'insights area' visible to the user about to edit settings for that same switch. The disclosed insights editor represents part of an overall network configuration development environment that includes automated techniques to assist with network configuration, design and maintenance.
