Enabling Auditable Trust in Autonomous Networks with Ethereum and IPFS
Operation and management of telecommunication networks are increasingly difficult with the demands and behaviours of users exceeding the capacity of network engineers to keep pace. This has led to increased automation of the network, enabled by various forms of intelligent software. One such proposal from the ITU-T Focus Group on Autonomous Networks (standardization group) is an architecture (Y.AN-ARCH-FW) to achieve self-driven automation (i.e.
