Abstract

A method is provided for verifying repairs in a communication system. In an embodiment, a service network receives a notification from an access network for a completed repair at the access network. The service network comprises a service node and the service network exchanges information with the service node through the access network. The service network retrieves a set of attributes from the notification and determines an identity of the service node using the set of attributes. A repair verification test is executed for the completed repair where the repair verification test is based upon the service node. Further, an outcome is determined for the completed repair based upon the repair verification test.
