Every enterprise network team we talk to has the same tension. They know that managing VLANs, firmware, credentials, and device lifecycles manually across hundreds of networks doesn’t scale. They’ve seen the demos. They understand what orchestration can do.
But they’ve also been burned. A script that ran against the wrong scope. A bulk change that couldn’t be reversed. An automation that “worked” according to the API but left the network in a state nobody intended.
The result is a gap between what teams want to automate and what they’re willing to automate. Not because the orchestration platform isn’t capable — Cisco Workflows is — but because orchestration alone doesn’t answer the questions enterprise ops teams need answered before they press Run:
That’s the gap Boundless fills.
Available on Exchange · Cisco Verified Automate VLAN provisioning and switch port configuration across MX gateways and MS switches. Pre-flight checks for subnet overlap, VLAN ID conflicts, and port mode mismatches. Topology-aware discovery identifies connected devices before changing port configurations.
Manage wireless network creation, modification, and decommissioning with tag-scoped targeting. Enforce naming conventions, security policy standards, and RADIUS/ISE integration requirements across selected network groups.
Define a reference network configuration, parameterize site-specific variables, and deploy standardized baselines to new or existing locations. Ensures every site starts from a validated, approved template rather than manual configuration.
Controlled upgrade operations that respect maintenance windows, validate compatibility, and provide clear rollback paths.
Firmware Ring Management Staged firmware rollouts using alpha/beta/stable designation patterns. Tag-based network grouping, firmware version compatibility checks, health gate validation between stages, and phased rollback if issues are detected. Designed for organizations that can’t afford to upgrade all sites simultaneously.
Step 1 — Use Case Workshop We start with your environment, your team’s pain points, and your operational constraints. No generic templates. We identify the automation use cases that deliver the most value with the least risk, and prioritize them based on your readiness and impact.
Step 2 — Module Development Our engineering team builds workflow modules tailored to your environment. Every module follows the safety framework: discovery, validation, approval gates where needed, controlled execution, verification, and rollback paths. We document what the module does, what it won’t do, and what guardrails are in place.
Step 3 — Deployment & Validation We deploy and test in your environment against your actual network topology. Validation isn’t “it works in our lab” — it’s “it works in your network, with your VLANs, your firmware versions, and your change control process.”
Step 4 — Ongoing Governance We maintain, update, and support your modules as Cisco evolves the Workflows platform. When new API capabilities ship, when your environment changes, when new use cases emerge — your automation stays current without adding headcount to your team.
Cisco Verified modules are built by ecosystem partners like Boundless, reviewed by Cisco for quality and security standards, and published on the Cisco Workflows Exchange.
For your team, this means a clear support model: Boundless builds and supports the module logic, Cisco builds and supports the underlying platform. For your procurement team, it means a partner that’s been reviewed by Cisco — not an unvetted script from a community forum.
For Cisco account teams and partners working with you on network operations, it means there’s a verified module they can point to rather than starting a custom automation conversation from scratch.
