Abstract
The present technology discloses methods, systems, and non-transitory computer-readable media for receiving, by a relying node in an optical transport network environment, attestation information in a trail trace identifier of an optical unit from an attester node in the optical transport network environment; verifying a trustworthiness of the attester node by identifying a level of trust of the attester node from the attestation information; and controlling network service access of the attester node through the relying node in the network environment based on the level of trust of the attester node identified from the attestation information.
