Abstract
A network management system manages a virtual network includes an interface system communicatively coupled to one or more servers, a director engine, and a configuration engine. The one or more servers implement a virtual network including one or more virtual machines and one or more containers organized into one or more virtual domains. The interface system generates a graphical user interface displaying graphical representations of the one or more virtual machines and the one or more containers and of the one or more servers; and information associated with the virtual network. The director engine receives a user selection of at least one server, virtual machine, container, or virtual domain, accesses information associated with the user selection, and identifies one or more of servers, virtual machines, containers, and virtual domains associated with the user selection.
