Abstract: A centralized controller automatically detects connections in a network system of network elements. The centralized controller provides a measurement schedule to network elements in the network system. The measurement schedule indicates a predetermined time to sample optical ports of each network element. The centralized controller obtains measurement results from each network element, with each particular measurement result being associated with an optical port of a network element. The centralized controller then cross-correlates the measurement results to determine one or more direct connections between optical ports on corresponding pairs of network elements. A notification indicating the one or more direct connections is provided to at least one administrative device.

Abstract: In one example embodiment, a wavelength of a first network node is identified for communication over a network with a second network node by sweeping wavelengths of the second network node. A wavelength of the second network node is adjusted based on the wavelength of the first network node to align wavelengths of the first network node and the second network node for communication.
