| 2025 | Intent-Driven Network Management with Multi-Agent LLMs: The Confucius FrameworkabstractAdvancements in Large Language Models (LLMs) are significantly transforming network management practices. In this paper, we present our experience developing Confucius, a multi-agent framework for network management at Meta. We model network management workflows as directed acyclic graphs (DAGs) to aid planning. Our framework integrates LLMs with existing management tools to achieve seamless operational integration, employs retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) to improve long-term memory, and establishes a set of primitives to systematically support human/model interaction. To ensure the accuracy of critical network operations, Confucius closely integrates with existing network validation methods and incorporates its own validation framework to prevent regressions. Remarkably, Confucius is a production-ready LLM development framework that has been operational for two years, with over 60 applications onboarded. To our knowledge, this is the first report on employing multi-agent LLMs for hyper-scale networks.
