Managing circuit maintenances and notifications is a well-known problem by network operators. The problem is best seen at the intersection of Source of Truth, circuit management, and network automation. Envision how circuit maintenances are scheduled by Network Service Providers (NSPs), which temporarily affects the actual state of a circuit, and what must be done to ensure network operators and automation tools know the state of a circuit that is ultimately dictated by carriers. This session explains how you can forget about reading notifications and updating your SoT for each circuit maintenance you receive (and there are a lot!) and let Nautobot automatically take care of fetching notifications, normalizing their data (the most common case is that every NSP has its own notification template) and finally updating the SoT, keeping track of past, present and future changes related to circuit maintenances.
