Abstract: A device obtains configuration parameters for multiple network elements of a network and receives first scores that assess a level of efficiency and a level of isolation for each of the multiple network elements. The device identifies a network element of the multiple network elements for modifying the identified network element's configuration based on the obtained configuration parameters and the received first scores.

Abstract: Systems and methods provide on-demand network slicing to support testing of customer use cases A test network management system receives customer parameters for a use case in a production network. The customer parameters include an identifier for a user equipment (UE) device to be tested with the use case. The test network management system provides, to the UE device, configuration information to associate the UE device with a test mode network segment of the production network. A network device in the production network may receive a registration request, from the UE device, that includes the configuration information. Based on the configuration information, the network device blocks the UE device from accessing the production network. Instead, the test network management system initiates provisioning of the test mode network segment for the UE device; and the network device redirects the registration request to the test mode network segment.

Abstract: A device may receive data relating to a site plan and image data relating to a network device. The device may determine a device identifier based on the image data, associate the device identifier with the site plan based on a common attribute between the network device and the site plan, and cause a certificate to be generated based on an authentication request to a network controller. The authentication request may cause the network controller to generate the certificate based on the device identifier and/or the site plan. The device may cause an Internet protocol (IP) address to be assigned to the network device based on the certificate, a location of the network device, and/or another related parameter, cause a node configuration to be generated based on the IP address, the device identifier, and/or the site plan, and provision the network device according to the node configuration.

Abstract: A device receives personality profiles sent from multiple network elements of a network and obtains configuration parameters for each of the multiple network elements from the personality profiles. The device receives first scores generated for the multiple network elements, where each of the first scores relates to assessing a usefulness status of a respective one of the multiple network elements. The device identifies a network element of the multiple network elements for modifying the identified network element's configuration based on the obtained configuration parameters and the received first scores.
