Patent attributes
Systems, methods, and computer-readable media for discovering a network's topology and health. In some examples, a system can obtain, from at least one of a plurality of controllers on a network, a logical model of the network, the logical model including configurations of one or more objects defined for the network. Based on the logical model, the system can identify a respective location of the plurality of controllers in the network and a plurality of nodes in a fabric of the network. Based on the respective location of the plurality of controllers and plurality of nodes, the system can poll the plurality of controllers and plurality of nodes for respective status information, and determine a health and topology of the network based on the logical model, the respective location, and respective status information.
