Abstract

Implementations relate to configuration of networks using switch device access of a remote server. In some implementations, a method includes sending a request from an edge configuration device to an access control server, where the request requests shortest path bridging (SPB) configuration information for a detected end device connected to the edge configuration device, and where the edge configuration device is connected to an SPB network. The method receives at the edge configuration device the SPB configuration information for the end device from the access control server. The edge configuration device is configured to provide the end device access to the SPB network.
