Abstract

Systems and methods to identify a plurality of different snapshot versions for a rollback to a previous configuration for subsets of network infrastructure devices is disclosed. A plurality of different network device configuration snapshots is identified and a set of snapshot checkpoints that each include a set of related parameter settings for each different network device are selected as a rollback configuration snapshot for that device. Each device may be associated with automated validation capabilities to validate a proposed rollback version. The computer system may iterate through a set of versions of snapshots and automatically initiate validation capabilities to validate a proposed rollback for the first logical grouping. Determination of a set of configurations may be based on a version control tag to restore a network to an operational state, never before seen in operation, that has a high degree of confidence, in part, because validation tests were successful.
