 Golden Assessment Library OverviewModern enterprise networks are too complex, dynamic, and vendor-diverse to rely on manual auditing. The Golden Assessment Library (GAL) is engineered to transform network assessment from a reactive chore into an autonomous, continuous process. The overarching mission of GAL is to proactively prevent outages and ensure optimal performance and availability across your infrastructure.  At its core, GAL provides comprehensive assessment coverage by evaluating both configuration design consistency and critical operational health indicators across the network. It establishes a unified, data-driven automation framework that provides deep, structured visibility into network health across a wide range of technologies—covering L2/L3 routing and switching, Quality of Service (QoS), High Availability (HA) redundancy, SDN/SD-WAN fabrics, and Cloud environments.  GAL is powered by two foundational capabilities: •   Assessment Rules: These continuously evaluate the
