The Versa Networks solution exposes northbound REST APIs primarily through its management and analytics platforms. Versa Director, as the central management, orchestration, and provisioning component, provides a comprehensive REST API for integration with third-party systems like OSS/BSS for automation. Versa Analytics, the platform for data collection, log storage, and reporting, also offers a REST API. This allows external applications and tools to programmatically query the vast amount of performance, security, and historical data collected from the network for custom dashboards, reporting, and further analysis.

A. Versa Controller: This component manages control plane connections and routing information with the CPEs; it does not serve as a primary northbound API endpoint for orchestration.

C. Versa CPE: The CPE (FlexVNF) is the branch device. It is managed centrally by Versa Director and does not expose a REST API for network-wide orchestration.
