contents Intent-Based Networking (IBN) aims to simplify operating heterogeneous infrastructures by translating high-level intents into enforceable policies and assuring compliance. However, dependable automation remains difficult because (i) realizing intents from ambiguous natural language into controller-ready policies is brittle and prone to conflicts and unintended side effects, and (ii) assurance is often reactive and struggles in multi-intent settings where faults create cascading symptoms and ambiguous telemetry. This paper proposes an end-to-end closed-loop IBN pipeline that uses large language models with structured validation for natural language to policy realization and conflict-aware activation, and reformulates assurance as proactive multi-intent failure prediction with root-cause disambiguation. The expected outcome is operator-trustworthy automation that provides actionable early warnings, interpretable explanations, and measurable lead time for remediation.
