Patent number: 11533216Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for correlating alarms throughout a multi-layer network and visualizing alarm clusters in a display of an interactive Graphical User Interface (GUI) to enable a network operator to prioritize urgent network issues. In one embodiment, an interactive GUI includes a main display area configured to display one or more geometrical shapes representing one or more alarm clusters, respectively. Each alarm cluster may represent a potential root-cause event in a network. The interactive GUI also includes one or more interactive objects that, when selected by a user, provide additional information associated with the one or more alarm clusters.Type: GrantFiled: August 28, 2020Date of Patent: December 20, 2022Assignee: Ciena CorporationInventors: Tommaso D'Ippolito, Christiane Louise Campbell, Sonya Thornley, Nigel Davis

Proactively detecting failures on restoration paths in an optical network and visualizations thereof
Patent number: 11496817Abstract: Systems and methods include, responsive to obtaining measurement data from an optical network and determining viability of a plurality of paths based on Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR) and availability of the plurality of paths, providing a User Interface (UI) that displays one or more photonic services and a path viability visualization for each of the one or more photonic services, wherein the path viability visualization, for each photonic service, includes visual elements for available paths of the plurality of paths and an indicator associated with each visual element indicative of path viability; and updating the UI responsive to a change in any of the viability and the availability of the plurality of paths. The steps can further include periodically obtaining the measurement data from the optical network and determining the viability of the plurality of paths.Type: GrantFiled: July 1, 2021Date of Patent: November 8, 2022Assignee: Ciena CorporationInventors: Alex W. MacKay, Christiane Louise Campbell, David W. Boertjes, John K. Oltman, Tommaso D'Ippolito -
Patent number: 11463325Abstract: A network management system includes a network interface communicatively coupled to one or more network elements in a network for exchanging Operations, Administration, Maintenance, and Provisioning (OAM&P) data; a processor communicatively coupled to the network interface; and memory storing instructions that, when executed, cause the processor to obtain the OAM&P data from the network, provide a Graphical User Interface (GUI) based on the network from the OAM&P data, wherein the GUI includes a network map which provides a topological view and a subway view which provides a detailed device-level view which is more granular than the network map and illustrates individual components at each site, receive a selection from a user of a service in the network, and update the GUI to highlight the service in the network map and illustrate the associated sites in the subway view.Type: GrantFiled: June 28, 2018Date of Patent: October 4, 2022Assignee: Ciena CorporationInventors: Tommaso D'Ippolito, Christiane Louise Campbell, Sonya Thornley, Yuen Ping Choi, Philippe Vic Savignac, Frederick James Lalonde, Michael Wilgosh
