Abstract
A network element has a replication process between a first instance and a second instance of the network element, such that the second instance is able to take over functioning of the network element in the event of failure of the first instance. The first instance receives a desired configuration to be applied to the network element. The second instance also receives the desired configuration. The second instance drops the desired configuration it received. The desired configuration is mapped from a declarative form to an imperative form at the first instance and the imperative form of the desired configuration is executed at the first instance such that the desired configuration is applied at the network element.
