A system for enabling deep fiber access to a software defined network includes a hybrid fiber coaxial (HFC) network, a software defined network (SDN) control agent disposed in the HFC network and a core network. The core network includes an IP backbone and an SDN. The SDN control agent receives a notification of a quality of service (QoS) degradation event and the accesses local table rules stored in the SDN control agent to determine whether the local table rules identify an action to implement in response to the notification. When the local table rules identify the control agent action to take in response to the notification implementing the action. When the local table rules do not identify the action to be implemented by the SDN control agent in response to the notification, then the SDN control agent accesses the SDN controller to determine whether the SDN controller can identify a controller action to take in response to the notification.

A network switch comprises a plurality of optical physical transport layer resources and a control plane management engine capable of receiving, via a request over a network interface, at least one control plane provisioning policy that maps at least one upper layer resource to at least some of the optical physical transport layer resources.
