VENDOR AGNOSTIC PROFILE-BASED MODELING OF SERVICE ACCESS ENDPOINTS IN A MULTITENANT ENVIRONMENT

An access profile includes configuration characteristics that are defined using device and operating system agnostic attributes. Thus, the access profiles are not necessarily dependent or otherwise tied to any particular vendor or network OS. When a system administrator configures one or more service access points, the system administrator may specify only the vendor and network OS agnostic characteristics that are to be associated with the service access point. A configuration generator can generate vendor specific and/or network specific configuration commands and data from the vendor and network OS agnostic access profile attributes. The generated configuration commands and data can be provided to a network device hosting the service access point using a vendor specific and/or network OS specific configuration application program interface.
