Compliance management in a local network
First Claim
1. A method, including:
- at a server system in a computer network that has a plurality of nodes, wherein each said node comprises a respective computational device and has a respective defined location in a linearly ordered communication orbit comprising said plurality of nodes;
injecting, into the linearly ordered communication orbit, a bundle of information items regarding deployment of a respective local environment verification framework at each of a first subset of nodes in the computer network, wherein;
the bundle of information items is distributed to a respective node of the first subset of nodes through the linearly ordered communication orbit,the respective local environment verification framework is established at the respective node of the first subset of nodes in accordance with the bundle of information items that is distributed to said respective node; and
the respective node of the first subset of nodes is configured to perform a first set of local environment verifications using the respective local environment verification framework that has been established at said respective node;
injecting, into the linearly ordered communication orbit, a query message to collect respective local results of the first set of local environment verifications from the first subset of nodes, wherein;
the query message is forwarded from node to node along the linearly ordered communication orbit, andthe respective node of the first subset of nodes, in response to receiving the query message through the linearly ordered communication orbit, sends the respective local results of the first set of local environment verifications that have been obtained at said respective node to the server system through the linearly ordered communication orbit.

Abstract
A local environment verification method, performed by a server of a computer network, includes injecting, into a linear communication orbit, a bundle of information items regarding deployment of a respective local environment verification framework at each of a first subset of nodes in the computer network. The bundle of information items is distributed to a respective node of the first subset of nodes through the linear communication orbit, and used to establish the respective local environment verification framework at the respective node of the first subset of nodes. The respective node of the first subset of nodes is configured to perform a set of local environment verifications using the respective local environment verification framework. The method further includes injecting, into the linear communication orbit, a query message to collect respective local results of the set of local environment verifications from the first subset of nodes.
