Abstract: A system is described whereby a cloud router may allow routing as a service in a cloud-like manner. In an example, an apparatus may include a processor and a memory coupled with the processor that effectuates operations. The operations may include receiving first routing information associated with a first customer edge device; adding the first routing information to network routing information of the apparatus, wherein the network routing information comprises a network routing table with routes for a plurality of networks; and propagating the network routing information to a software defined network (SDN) controller, wherein, based on the network routing information, the SDN controller sends a forwarding information base (FIB) to a provider edge device connected with the first customer edge device.

Abstract: The technologies described herein are generally directed to modeling radio wave propagation in a fifth generation (5G) network or other next generation networks. For example, a method described herein can include, facilitating receiving a disabling request for a first time period and applicable to a first service element in a first service path of first service elements to provide a service. The method can further include identifying, by the configuration equipment, and scheduled change data, a second service element from a combined group of the first and second service elements of a second service path for the provision of the service. Further, based on a first determination that the second service element is to be disabled during the first time period, facilitating disabling the first service element during a second time period where the second service element is not disabled.

Abstract: In one example, a method performed by a processing system in a telecommunications network includes receiving a technical support query that reports a technical support issue, where the technical support query is phrased in natural language, parsing a meaning from the technical support query using natural language understanding, wherein the meaning indicates a nature of the technical support issue, matching the technical support query to a document stored in a dynamic knowledge base, wherein the matching is based on the meaning, identifying a remedial action to resolve the technical support issue, based on the document, and performing an action to carry out the remedial action.
