    Abstract: Disclosed herein is a network management apparatus, comprising: a script acquisition unit configured to acquire a script for automating an operation related to operating a network; a parameter acquisition unit configured to acquire an input parameter that is required to run the script acquired by the script acquisition unit in a production environment of the script and a run mode in the production environment; and a script running unit configured to run the script acquired by the script acquisition unit according to the run mode acquired by the parameter acquisition unit using the input parameter acquired by the parameter acquisition unit, and, when the run mode is a dry run mode, the script running unit skipping a process of changing configuration of the network among processes described in the script, and running the script in the production environment.

    Abstract: A service orchestrator receives a definition of a change to a network service to be deployed over a plurality of sites of a communications network. The definition comprises a configuration schema with a plurality of fields, which are partitioned into a plurality of different configuration group types. The service orchestrator receives an instance of the configuration group type. The service orchestrator receives conditional convergence logic specifying the received instance each site is to use conditional on a current state instance of the configuration group type used at the site. The service orchestrator sends instructions to each of the sites based on the conditional convergence logic, the instructions comprising the received instance. The instructions are configured to trigger a site convergence agent at each site to deploy the change to the network service according to the received instance of the configuration group type and the conditional convergence logic.

    Abstract: In some examples an electronic device includes a sensor, and a controller to detect a proximity of a second electronic device via the sensor. In response to determining that the proximity is within a threshold distance, the controller causes transmission of context information to the second electronic device. The context information is generated based on a location, a time, an application executed by the second electronic device, or a combination thereof. In response to the transmission of the context information, the controller receives a first signal from the second electronic device, and, in response to the first signal, the controller causes transmission of a second signal, the second signal to enable coupling to the second electronic device.
