Abstract

Disclosed herein are system, method, and computer program product embodiments for optimal placement of aggregator equipment in telecommunication networks. An embodiment operates by determining an optimized traffic aggregation configuration based on execution of a network optimization function. The embodiment executes the network optimization function by receiving, as an input, information corresponding to resource capacity of the one or more types of aggregator units and resource demands generated by the plurality of access nodes, calculating an estimated number of each type of traffic aggregator unit of the one or more types of traffic aggregator units, and calculating the optimized traffic aggregation configuration. The embodiment modifies, based on the optimized traffic aggregation configuration, a network connectivity configuration corresponding to the plurality of network sites, and routes, based on the modified network connectivity configuration, network traffic via the optimized group of one or more types of traffic aggregator units.
