Abstract

The technologies described herein are generally directed to deploying network equipment. For example, a method described herein can include facilitating receiving a first request to deploy first network equipment at a deployment location, with the first request including a first deployment parameter for the first network equipment. The method further includes, based on the first network equipment and the first deployment parameter, generating a deployment template. Further, the method can facilitate receiving a second request to deploy second network equipment at the deployment location, with the second request including a second deployment parameter for the second network equipment. The method can further include, based on the deployment template and the second deployment parameter, deploying the second network equipment.
