Abstract
Systems and methods described herein enable automation of network slice deployments. A network device stores a group of preconfigured templates for different slice segments of a data transport network and identifies customer parameters for a slice. The network device retrieves a first template that satisfies the customer parameters for a first slice segment and generates a first segment design for the slice. The network device retrieves a second template that supports the first segment design and customer parameters for a second slice segment and generates at least one second segment design for the slice. The network device assembles an end-to-end slice design using the first segment design and the at least one second segment design and forwards the end-to-end slice design to a deployment system for the data transport network.
