Abstract
A network management system (NMS) that can provision and manage a network is provided. During operation, the NMS can determine, for a respective network device in the network, connectivity information indicating how the network device is connected within the network and a device profile of the network device. The NMS can then determine a connectivity tier of the network device in the network based on the connectivity information. The connectivity tier can correspond to a placement of the network device in a hierarchy of network devices in the network. The NMS can select a device persona associated with the connectivity tier. Here, the device persona indicates specification and configurations for the network device. The NMS can send, to the network device, configuration information that configurates the device persona on the network device.
