First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method for automatic repair of network devices in a communications network comprising:
- identifying, at a processor, a network device in a communications network;
identifying, in a database, a profile comprising device identification information corresponding to the network device;
establishing, using the processor, communication with the network device based on the identification information to determine a status for the network device; and
initiating, using the processor, at least one repair procedure to restore the network device based on the status.

Abstract
Systems and methods for automatic repair, replacement, and/or configuration of various network devices within a communications network are disclosed. The system may receive indication of a failed network device and automatically perform diagnostic on the network device to determine any problems associated with the hardware and/or software components within the network device. Subsequently one or more repair, replacement, and/or configuration procedures may be automatically initiated in an attempt to resolve the problems and restore the failed network device.
