Patent ID: 8902761

Claim:
A method for providing a network topology management of a wireless communication network, comprising: discovering, by a processor, network topology data of the wireless communication network, wherein the wireless communication network comprises a self-healing capability; identifying, by the processor, a difference between the network topology data that is discovered against a stored network topology data of the wireless communication network, wherein the identifying comprises: identifying a portion of the network topology data that is different from the stored network topology data stored in a network topology and configuration inventory database; and updating, by the processor, the stored network topology data with the difference that is identified, wherein the updating comprises: updating the portion of the network topology data that is different from the stored network topology data to an element management system; updating the portion of the network topology data that is different from the stored network topology data in the network topology and configuration inventory database; and creating objects in a hierarchical manner in accordance with a location, a node, a card, a port, a circuit, a logical connection, a pool, and a cell, and sector objects to reflect the difference in the network topology data, wherein the creating comprises: creating the objects only if the objects do not exist and that required components associated with a primary key exist.
