摘要：A method and apparatus are provided for evaluating the capacity of a capabilityenabled by network devices in a computer network. The method includes identifying anetwork capability enabled by one or more network devices, monitoring a plurality of

hardware resources of the one or more network devices during implementation of oneor more instances of the identified network capability and capturing respective device-specific metrics representative of a utilization level of each of the plurality of hardwareresources during implementation of the one or more instances. The method also includesidentifying which one of the plurality of hardware resources is most limiting for aremaining capacity of the identified network capability, calculating, based on thehardware resource that is most limiting for the remaining capacity of the identifiednetwork capability, a maximum remaining capacity for additional instances of theidentified network capability, and providing an indication of the maximum remainingcapacity of the identified network capability.
