A method includes processing a data file including one or more parameters for configuring a network function provided by a network device. The data file is processed to recognize and extract the one or more parameters included in the data file. The method also includes causing one or more of a plurality of parameter fields included in a graphical user interface to be populated with the one or more parameters extracted from the data file according to a mapping between the one or more parameters extracted from the data file and corresponding parameter fields included in the graphical user interface. The method further includes processing parameters included in the parameter fields to generate a JavaScript Object Notation (JSON) configuration file. The method additionally includes causing the JSON configuration file to be sent to the network device to implement the network function according to the JSON configuration file.

A method includes causing an electronic self-organizing network (eSON) general-purpose remote procedure call (gRPC) client to register a first cell in a communication network. The first cell is registered on an eSON gRPC server. The method also includes causing first information associated with the first cell to be processed by the eSON gRPC server to determine whether a mismatch exists between the first cell and a second cell in the communication network. The method further includes, in response to receiving a first message indicating the mismatch exists from the eSON gRPC server, sending a second message indicating the mismatch exists to an operational support system (OSS) to cause the OSS to generate a change request to be communicated to a network configuration controller for changing a network function implemented by a network device corresponding to one of the first cell or the second cell to resolve the mismatch that exists.

Provisioning of day-1 configuration templates is automated. Users are provided access to a Configuration Template User Interface (UI) for creating configuration templates. Input is received on the Configuration Template UI to create the configuration templates. A trigger is received by a configuration manager to initiate configuration of network devices or functions. The trigger includes one or more Template Identifiers (IDs) corresponding to the one or more configuration templates. Configuration files are generated based on the trigger and one or more Template IDs corresponding to the one or more configuration templates. Configuration files are sent from the configuration manager to the one or more network devices or functions to configure the one or more network devices or functions.
