Method for Enforcing Access Control Policies on NCMS

Abstract

Configuration of large-scale networks is difficult and error-prone. Misconfigurations known as vulnerabilities are a major cause of network outages and security problems. This paper proposes an effective Network Configuration Management System (NCMS) with the enforced Access Control policies and centralized management method to provide a controllable security access interface for the configuration management of internal network devices and leads to better network resiliency, security, and scalability.
