Abstract
A network system includes a memory, and processing circuitry in communication with the memory. The processing circuitry is configured to identify, for each service provider network of a set of service provider networks, a network name associated with the service provider network, wherein two or more service provider networks of the set of service provider networks are associated with the same network name. Additionally, the processing circuitry is configured to append the network name corresponding to each service provider network of the set of service provider networks with a respective network identifier to generate a set of appended network names. Each appended network name of the set of appended network names may be different than each other appended network name of the set of appended network names. The processing circuitry is configured to output a network device corresponding to each service provider network of the set of service provider networks.
