First Claim
1. A device, comprising:
- one or more processors configured to;
receive optical network information associated with a first optical node and a second optical node,the first optical node being associated with a first group of optical devices corresponding to a first group of payloads,the second optical node being associated with a second group of optical devices corresponding to a second group of payloads;
identify a first mapping in which a first group of optical channels is associated with the first group of optical devices,the first group of optical channels carrying the first group of payloads from the first group of optical devices;
identify a second mapping in which a second group of optical channels is associated with the second group of optical devices,the second group of optical channels carrying the second group of payloads from the second group of optical devices;
determine alert information that identifies whether there is a communication mismatch between the first group of optical devices and the second group of optical devices; and
provide, for display, information depicting the first mapping, information depicting the second mapping, and the alert information,where the alert information is based on a first optical device, of the first group of optical devices, that does not correspond to a second optical device of the second group of optical devices,where the first optical device corresponds to the second optical device when the first optical device and the second optical device are associated with a particular optical channel that is included in the first group of optical channels and the second group of optical channels.

Abstract
A device may receive optical network information associated with a first optical node and a second optical node. The first optical node may be associated with a first group of optical devices. The second optical node may be associated with a second group of optical devices. The device may identify a first mapping in which a first group of optical channels is associated with the first group of optical devices and a second mapping in which a second group of optical channels is associated with the second group of optical devices. The first group of optical channels may correspond to the first group of payloads, and the second group of optical channels may correspond to the second group of payloads. The device may provide information depicting the first mapping and information depicting the second mapping.

8. A method, comprising:
-
receiving, by a device, optical network information associated with a first optical node and a second optical node, the first optical node being associated with a first group of optical devices, corresponding to a first group of payloads, the first optical node being associated with the second optical node, and the second optical node being associated with a second group of optical devices corresponding to a second group of payloads; identifying, by the device, a first mapping in which a first group of optical channels is associated with the first group of optical devices, the first group of optical channels being provisioned to carry the first group of payloads from the first group of optical devices; identifying, by the device, a second mapping in which a second group of optical channels is associated with the second group of optical devices, the second group of optical channels being provisioned to carry the second group of payloads from the second group of optical devices; providing, for display and by the device, information depicting the first mapping that is associated with the first optical node; providing, for display and by the device, information depicting the second mapping that is associated with the second optical node; identifying, by the device, an alert associated with the first optical node or the second optical node based on the first mapping and the second mapping; and providing, for display and by the device, information that identifies the alert, where the alert is based on a first optical device, of the first group of optical devices, that does not correspond to a second optical device of the second group of optical devices, where the first optical device corresponds to the second optical device when the first optical device and the second optical device are associated with a particular optical channel that is included in the first group of optical channels and the second group of optical channels. - View Dependent Claims (9, 10, 11, 12)
