arXiv:2607.05958v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We present a distributed, vendor-agnostic multi-MCP architecture for SDN-based automation and autonomous control of multi-vendor, multi-layer IPoDWDM networks. The framework enables E2E service lifecycle automation, closed-loop cross-layer control using GNPy model and optical telemetry, and is experimentally validated on a IPoDWDM testbed.
The increasing complexity and scale of modern networks, particularly IPoDWDM, necessitate advanced automation solutions, and AI agents are maturing to address this need efficiently.
This development indicates a significant leap in network management, moving towards autonomous, self-optimizing infrastructure, crucial for the performance and resilience of future digital ecosystems.
Network operations will transition from manual or partially automated systems to highly autonomous, AI-driven management, reducing human intervention and latency in response.
