AUTOMATIC DEVICE CONFIGURATION
First Claim
1. A system for automatic device configuration, the system comprising:
- a performance monitor module to monitor, at a computing device, performance of the computing device during a period while the computing device communicates on a network using a current network interface of the computing device;
a policy enforcement module to;
compare the performance of the computing device during the period with a performance policy installed on the computing device; and
determine that the performance violates a threshold, the threshold provided in the performance policy; and
a network configuration module to;
reconfigure a network configuration in response to the determining that the performance violates the threshold by disabling the current network interface and enabling a replacement network interface from a plurality of network interfaces available on the computing device.

Abstract
Various systems and methods for automatic device configuration are described herein. A system for automatic device configuration comprises a performance monitor module to monitor, at a computing device, performance of the computing device during a period while the computing device communicates on a network using a current network interface of the computing device, a policy enforcement module to compare the performance of the computing device during the period with a performance policy installed on the computing device, and determine that the performance violates a threshold, the threshold provided in the performance policy. The system also includes a network configuration module to reconfigure a network configuration in response to the determining that the performance violates the threshold by disabling the current network interface and enabling a replacement network interface from a plurality of network interfaces available on the computing device.

23. A machine-readable medium including instructions for automatic device configuration, which when executed by a machine, cause the machine to:
-
monitor, at a computing device, performance of the computing device during a period while the computing device communicates on a network using a current network interface of the computing device; compare the performance of the computing device during the period with a performance policy installed on the computing device; determine that the performance violates a threshold, the threshold provided in the performance policy; and reconfigure a network configuration in response to the determining that the performance violates the threshold, the reconfiguring performed by the computing device, and the reconfiguring the network configuration including disabling the current network interface and enabling a replacement network interface from a plurality of network interfaces available on the computing device.
