ABSTRACT:
The invention is systems and methods for determining a fundamental route between central offices in a telecommunications network. The invention receives a “request for service” as location names or location information associated with the two selected locations. The location names or location information are correlated with one or more corresponding SONET carrier identification codes (SCID). If the two selected locations have intermediate locations between them, the invention determines a set of intermediate locations. Location information associated with each intermediate location can then be correlated with one or more corresponding SONET carrier identification codes (SCID). A set of routes can then be generated between the two user-selected locations, including routes between locations and sub-locations, and between sub-locations, each based upon fundamental route criteria. Fundamental route criteria can include the distance between points, transmission equipment utilization, transmission capacity, or redundancy. Finally, a fundamental route is selected based upon at least one fundamental route criteria.
