FIRST NETWORK NODE, THIRD NETWORK NODE, AND METHODS PERFORMED THEREBY HANDLING A MAINTENANCE OF A SECOND NETWORK NODE

摘要

A method, performed by a first network node (110), for handling a maintenance of one or more second network nodes (120) is described herein. The first network node (110) and the one or more second network nodes (120) operate in a communications network (100). The first network node (110) obtains (601), respectively, from each of one or more third network nodes (130) operating in the communications network (100), and for a respective second network node (121, 122, 123) of the one or more second network nodes (120), one or more predictive models for each of: a) a performance of the respective second network node (121, 122, 123), and b) a traffic load of the respective second network node (121, 122, 123). The first network node (110) then determines (602) one or more plans to maintain the one or more second network nodes (120), based on the obtained one or more predictive models.
