Systems, computer program products, and methods are described herein for dynamic reconfiguration of network communications. An example system includes a first network pod including a first set of network ports, a second network pod including a second set of network ports, a set of network cores, and a first intermediate network switch. The first intermediate switch operatively couples the first network pod, the second network pod, and the set of network cores. The first intermediate network switch is configured to selectively establish full bisectional bandwidth data communication between a subset of the set of network cores, a subset of the first set of network ports, and a subset of the second set of network ports.

Systems and methods for dynamic reconfiguration of network communications

Systems, computer program products, and methods are described herein for network discovery, port identification, and/or identifying fiber link failures in an optical network, in accordance with an embodiment of the invention. The present invention may be configured to sequentially connect each port of an optical switch to a network port of a server and generate, based on information associated with network devices connected to the ports, a network map. The network map may identify which network devices are connected to which ports of the optical switch and may permit dynamic port mapping for network installation, upgrades, repairs, and/or the like. The present invention may also be configured to determine a fiber link in which a failure occurred and reconfigure the optical switch to allow communication between an optical time-domain reflectometer and the fiber link to test the fiber link.
