This presentation is an overview of automation solutions for Routed Optical networking, over multiple vendors utilizing Cisco’s Crossword Hierarchical Controller.
Moti serves as the Product Manager for the Hierarchical Crosswork Controller, a crucial component of the comprehensive Crosswork Suite. This suite offers orchestration, automation, and control for multi-layer IP and optical networks. The Crosswork solution streamlines network architecture by reducing layers and protocols, enabling the consolidation of services like IP, OTN, TDM, and PLE onto a single platform. With its ability to provide end-to-end connectivity provisioning and integration with both IP and optical equipment controllers, the Hierarchical Crosswork Controller offers a comprehensive view of the network from IP services down to the optical layer. It also facilitates network visualization, identifies potential points of failure, proximity rule violations, and other fiber and service-related insights to optimize maintenance and performance. The Controller manages various components such as IP gear, optical line systems, rodents, and ZRs, and ensures seamless connectivity across different layers. Troubleshooting involves analyzing information at each layer and reviewing performance history for individual components. The SHQL (Sedona Hierarchical Query language) simplifies complex data queries, allowing users to ask straightforward questions about network performance, while APIs enable customers to integrate their preferred workflow manager into the system.
