Methods and apparatus to provide command abstraction. In one embodiment, a method includes obtaining information on commands for a plurality of devices including devices of the same type having different command structures, receiving a generic command from a user directed to one of the devices of the same type, determining, using a computer processor, whether the generic command is supported, extracting parameters from the generic command, and generating from the extracted parameters and the generic command a device-specific command for execution by the one of the devices of the same type.
