1. An orchestration adapter, comprising:
a processor; and
a non-transitory computer-readable medium storing processor-executable instructions that, when executed by the processor, cause the processor to:
store a mapping indicative of a correspondence between a plurality of logical-view passbands and a plurality of physical-view passbands, each of the plurality of physical-view passbands comprising one or more partition, each of the one or more partition corresponding to a particular logical-view passband of the plurality of logical-view passbands;
receive a logical-view operation request from an orchestrator of a network element in an optical network, the logical-view operation request identifying an operation and a first logical-view passband of the plurality of logical-view passbands, the operation being executable by a control block of the network element, the first logical-view passband being associated with the operation; and
send a physical-view operation request to the control block, the physical-view operation request comprising instructions to cause the control block to execute the operation, the instructions identifying the operation and a first physical-view passband of the plurality of physical-view passbands, a first partition of the one or more partition of the first physical-view passband corresponding to the first logical-view passband.
