==Connectivity Management Environment Endpoint Discovery via Connectivity Management System Client - A simplified explanation of the abstract==


This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17877621 titled 'Connectivity Management Environment Endpoint Discovery via Connectivity Management System Client

==Simplified Explanation==

The patent application describes a system, method, and computer-readable medium for managing connectivity in a data center. Here is a simplified explanation of the abstract:

* A data center asset is provided with a client module.
* A connection is established between the client module and a connectivity management system.
* The connectivity management system includes an aggregator.
* The system determines if an endpoint is connected to the client module.
* Interconnectivity information associated with the client module and the endpoint is identified.
* The interconnectivity information is provided to the connectivity management system aggregator.

Potential applications of this technology:

* Data center management: The system can be used to efficiently manage and monitor connectivity within a data center, ensuring optimal performance and resource allocation.
* Network troubleshooting: The system can help identify and resolve connectivity issues between data center assets and endpoints, improving network reliability and reducing downtime.
* Asset tracking: By providing interconnectivity information, the system can assist in tracking and managing the physical location and connections of data center assets.

Problems solved by this technology:

* Complex connectivity management: The system simplifies the management of connectivity within a data center, reducing the need for manual tracking and troubleshooting.
* Efficient resource allocation: By providing interconnectivity information, the system enables better resource allocation and optimization within the data center.
* Improved network reliability: The system helps identify and resolve connectivity issues, improving the overall reliability and performance of the data center network.
