Abstract

A network device includes one or more processors and a memory storing firmware that when executed by the one or more processors causes the network device to perform operations including executing the firmware according to a configuration file, wherein the executing includes receiving one or more commands updating the configuration file to become a modified configuration file; and executing the firmware according to the modified configuration file. Wherein executing the firmware according to the modified configuration file includes: extracting a mode from the modified configuration file, the mode indicating a condition, a set of parameters, and a rule mapping the condition to an action; evaluating the condition based on one or more parameter values associated with the set of parameters; and in response to determining that the condition has been met, performing the action, wherein performing the action modifies how a resource is distributed at a location.
