6 Ways AI Could Improve Network Management

Networking devices are among the most complex pieces of equipment to manage. IT managers often spend great amounts of time setting different configuration and operating parameters. Much of the work is manual and often subject to errors. Unfortunately, the complexity of modern networking devices like routers, switches, Wi-Fi access points, firewalls, gateways, and more continues to grow, making their management all that much harder.

As a result, it is no surprise that both network managers and networking equipment vendors are looking to artificial intelligence (AI) and generative AI (GenAI) to help improve the situation. In this slideshow, we look at some of the most common ways AI is being used to simplify the management of networking equipment.
