Auto-provision method, a system and computer program products for FTTH backhaul, midhaul or fronthaul for mobile base stations based on SDN

A system for auto-provision Fiber-to-the Home (FTTH) backhaul, midhaul or fronthaul for mobile base stations based on software defined networking (SDN), comprising:

• an Internet service provider infrastructure including an optical liner terminal, OLT, and a software defined networking, SDN, controller;
• an optical termination point;
• an optical network unit, ONU;
• and
• a base station,
• wherein the base station being adapted and configured to be connected to the ONU,
• wherein the OLT being adapted and configured to detect when the ONU is connected to the optical termination point and to notify the SDN controller upon said detection, the SDN controller being adapted and configured to provide connectivity to said base station to a first restricted network providing access to a web site with limited connectivity, the latter being part of the Access service provider infrastructure;
• wherein the web site with limited connectivity being adapted and configured to receive credential information identifying a technician of the base station on the web site with limited connectivity and to, once the technician being connected therein, further receive configuration information specifying which Fiber-to-the Home, FTTH, backhaul, midhaul or fronthaul services the base station requires subscription;
• and
• wherein the SDN controller being adapted and configured to disconnect the base station from the web site with limited connectivity and to reconnect the base station to a second network configured to provide access to a core network and to the subscribed FTTH backhaul, midhaul or fronthaul services to the base station.
