Abstract
Techniques for providing route redundancy for services at a service location of a PON include obtaining indications of a service location of the PON and a set of required services for the location; and detecting, based on geospatial locations and interconnections of optical components of the PON, that two or more physical polyline routes (each configured to support the set of required services at the service location) include different elements, e.g., different on-ramp facilities, network serving equipment, physical polyline route segments connecting to a common component of each of the two or more routes, or serving facilities of one or more providers. The detected two or more routes may be configured to be a set of redundant physical polyline routes for providing the required services to the location. One or more services may be caused to be delivered to the location via the configured set of redundant physical polyline routes.
