METHODS AND SYSTEMS FOR AUTOMATICALLY REROUTING LOGICAL CIRCUIT DATA IN A DATA NETWORK

Determining a failure of a logical connection in a logical circuit identified by a logical circuit identifier, the logical circuit comprising variable communication paths in at least one of a first or a second logical telecommunications network and a fixed communication path between the first and second logical telecommunications networks, and the failed logical connection being between the first and second logical telecommunications networks; identifying a logical failover circuit comprising an alternate communication path in a failover network that is separate from the logical circuit, the failover network reserved to provide failover circuits to communicate data rerouted from failed logical circuits, and the logical failover circuit identified by a second logical circuit identifier; renaming the logical circuit identifier of the logical circuit to the second logical circuit identifier of the logical failover circuit; and rerouting the data from the logical circuit to the logical failover circuit without manual intervention.
