A set of commands () available for the current state of the network device () is retrieved (). A next state associated with a current command is determined () for each command in the set of commands (). A transition from the current state to the next state is created () in response to determining a next state associated with a current command. A transition is determined to have been created for each command in the set of commands (). An extended finite state machine () is created that includes at least the current state, the next state, and the transition for each of the commands in the set of commands ().
