Abstract

A network management server may provide options via a user interface for configuring a network and a network policy for the network. The network management server may identify values for network attributes based on the user-selected option(s). The network management server may maintain network entity attribute information and use the network entity attribute information to populate the selectable options based on which conditions and/or actions for the network policy are defined.
