Aspects of the subject disclosure may include, for example, predicting dense wavelength division multiplexing (DWDM) path outage prediction and recommendation of alternate communication paths. Parameterized DWDM signals are launched, and resulting network characteristics are determined. The parameters and characteristics are used to train one or more machine learning models subsequently used to predict outages and recommend alternate paths. Other embodiments are disclosed.

DWDM path outage prediction and alternative path recommendation

The technologies described herein are generally directed to provisioning services from a network. For example, a method described herein can include facilitating receiving a provisioning request for a network provisioning task. Further, the method can include, based on the network provisioning task, selecting a logical provisioning template to facilitate a performance of the network provisioning task. Further, based on the logical provisioning template, the method can include identifying a programming object comprising logical commands for the performance of the network provisioning task. The method can include executing the logical commands of the programming object to control service implementation equipment to perform the network provisioning task.

Generating and utilizing provisioning templates to provision voice, video, and data communication services

Aspects of the subject disclosure may include, for example, identifying network elements of a wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) domain of an optical waveguide communication system that includes a group of optical-add-drop multiplexor (OADM) devices. Operations are observed for the WDM domain configured to deliver communication services configured for simultaneously transporting independent signals across a network of single optical waveguides. A demand for optical waveguide communication services is determined and the WDM network is configured according to the optical fiber communication link requirement and according to the observations. The configured WDM network includes at least one OADM device of the group of OADM devices configured to provide a WDM cross-frequency network path of the configured WDM network. Other embodiments are disclosed.

Dynamic cross-frequency path configuration for wavelength division multiplexing networks

Methods, systems, and apparatuses may determine a connection topology for a service and send an alert in which the alert includes a service connection topology that includes a plurality of port assignments for each equipment of the connection topology.

Enterprise port assignment

Devices, computer-readable media, and methods for automatically configuring network elements in multi-vendor and multi-domain topologies. In one example, a method includes determining a need of a communications network, where a topology of the communications network includes a plurality of network functions from at least two different vendors, predicting a subset of the plurality of network functions and respective configuration parameter values for network functions in the subset, that are expected to support the need of the communications network, and modifying the configurations of the network functions in the subset to reflect the respective configuration parameter values.
