Abstract:
A method and system for enforcing network topology. The method includes receiving, at a first port on a first switch, a second role associated with a second switch, where the second switch is connected to the first switch using the first port, and where the first switch is associated with a first role. The method further includes making a first determination, using the first role, the second role, and a network topology policy, that the first switch should not be connected to the second switch. Sending, in response to the first determination, a first alert to an alert recipient, where the first alert specifies that the first switch is improperly connected to the second switch.

Claim (Index 24):
The non-transitory computer readable medium of  claim 21 , wherein the second role is received by the first switch using a discovery protocol.
