1. A method for providing local loop information in a network, comprising:
receiving, by a processor, a request for the local loop information pertaining to a transmission channel, wherein the transmission channel comprises a digital signaling level 1 channel; determining, by the processor, whether the transmission channel has a local loop; retrieving, by the processor, data associated with the local loop when the transmission channel has the local loop, wherein the local loop has a number of spans; analyzing, by the processor, the data associated with each span of the local loop to determine a facility type that supports the transmission channel, wherein the facility type is determined from among a group comprising of: a copper-based facility type, a fiber optic-based facility type and a hybrid-based facility type, wherein the hybrid-based facility type represents a facility that comprises a first span that employs a copper-based facility and a second span that employs a fiber optic-based facility; and providing, by the processor, a response to the request, the response including the facility type that is determined. |
