The implementation does not perform any of these operations. Each purport ...[truncated 2597 chars]
- Remediation
- ## Remediation Suggestions 1. Clearly label the current implementation as a non-operational demonstration and remove statements claiming that configuration or validation succeeded. 2. Return `not evaluated` or failure by default whenever an actual check cannot be performed. 3. Implement authenticated, least-privilege integration with the intended network-management interface before claiming to connect to or modify equipment. 4. Replace spinner-only checks with explicit validation functions for infrastructure readiness, hardware compatibility, licenses, bandwidth, frequency allocation, and neighboring-cell configuration. 5. Require each validation function to return structured evidence, including the checked target, timestamp, measured value, expected value, and pass/fail status. 6. Generate configuration from validated and schema-constrained inputs. Provide a dry-run mode and display the exact proposed changes before deployment. 7. Require explicit operator confirmation before applying changes to production equipment. 8. Verify upload and command results using device response codes and post-change configuration reads rather than elapsed time or printed messages. 9. Stop the workflow immediately on failed checks or deployment errors, and propagate a non-success exit status to calling automation. 10. Add post-deployment health checks and a tested rollback procedure. 11. Produce an auditable report containing real device identifiers, sanitized command results, validation evidence, errors, and rollback status. 12. Add automated tests proving that missing licenses, incompatible hardware, unavailable devices, insufficient bandwidth, rejected commands, and failed health checks cannot result in a success conclusion.
