Patent ID: 10833930

Abstract:
Methods and apparatus to convert configuration data associated with a first router are disclosed. An example apparatus includes a selector tool to identify a first port of a first router having a first set of data lines, and identify, via the selector tool, a second port of a second router to receive the first set of data lines to be migrated from the first port of the first router. The first router and the second router use different, incompatible configuration data formats. A data transceiver is to capture first port configuration data associated with the first port of the first router. A configuration data converter is to identify a type of interface associated with the captured first port configuration data and convert the captured first port configuration data from a first format compatible with the first router to a second format compatible with the second router based on the identified type of interface. A conversion file generator is to generate a configuration file containing the converted first port configuration data in the second format.
