—**Fortifying the Connectivity Foundation for ISP AI Services**

SHANGHAI, Sept. 21, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — On September 17, during HUAWEI CONNECT 2026,
the roundtable themed "Intelligent WAN, Fortifying the AI Services Connectivity 
Foundation for ISPs" concluded in Shanghai. The event brought together global ISP
experts and partners exploring industry trends, solutions, and best practices. At
the roundtable, Huawei unveiled its Intelligent WAN Target Architecture to unlock
the potential of AI and computing power in the intelligent era.

Wayne Zhou, Vice President of Huawei’s ISP Computing and Network Infrastructure 
BU, highlighted that AI commercialization is accelerating, enabling asset-heavy 
players to monetize their capabilities through lightweight services. New trends 
are reshaping the ISP sector. Moving beyond mere pipelines, ISPs are leveraging 
edge nodes and their unique advantages to integrate connectivity, computing, and
APIs, transitioning from selling bandwidth to delivering AI services. Meanwhile,
they are building a unified, intelligent, and service-aware WAN to enhance AI readiness
and drive continuous evolution.

Ado, CEO of Huawei’s Wide Area Network Domain, introduced the Intelligent WAN Target
Architecture. He noted that agentic AI is driving three network shifts: connections
shift from humans to agents; traffic patterns shift from heavy downlink traffic 
to massive uplink traffic; and network experience assurance expands from specific
applications to the entire agent workflow. To navigate and leverage these shifts,
ISPs must fortify their networks. He proposed prioritizing three strategic pillars:
First, building a hierarchical, modular, and standardized IP+Optical converged target
architecture. This empowers ISPs to rapidly expand their presence, deliver services,
and enhance network resilience, accelerating AI service rollouts. Second, focusing
on end-to-end user experience to transform network capabilities into definable, 
measurable, and deliverable differentiated services. This drives the monetization
of both network capabilities and AI. Third, elevating intelligent O&M capabilities.
Through tools like Network Digital Map, fault-locating agent, and AI assistant, 
ISPs can significantly reduce OPEX and improve O&M efficiency. He also proposed 
an evolution roadmap for target WANs, helping ISPs seize new growth opportunities
in the AI era.

At the roundtable, Lintasarta Indonesia, SiliconFlow China and Telconet Ecuador 
shared their AI services and insights into intelligent network deployment. Participating
ISP experts contributed valuable insights, providing actionable guidance for network
planning and deployment in the AI era.

Moving forward, Huawei will continue to strengthen its innovation and investment
in the ISP and computing network fields, collaborating with customers to usher in
a new intelligent future.
