 OSPF Extensions in Support of RWA in Wavelength Switched Optical Networks

Abstract

This document describes OSPF routing protocols extensions to support Routing and Wavelength Assignment (RWA) in Wavelength Switched Optical Networks (WSON) under the control of Generalized MPLS (GMPLS).

The 77th IETF meeting will be held in Anahiem, California at the end of March 2010.   Note that "signal compatibility" considerations has now been incorporated into the WSON framework document. The WSON Information modeling document highlights those aspects of the WSON model that may be applicable to other technologies, and the WSON encoding document  has been split into two pieces. One piece contains those aspects necessary for WSON networks that may be applicable to other technologies and one piece that contains those aspects more specialized to WSONs.

General Network Element Constraint Encoding for GMPLS Controlled Networks

Abstract

Generalized Multiprotocol Label Switching can be used to control a wide variety of technologies. In some of these technologies network
elements and links may impose additional routing constraints such as asymmetric switch connectivity, label limitation and label availability on links.

Alternative Approaches to Traffic Engineering Database Creation and Maintenance for Path Computation Elements

 

Abstract

Path Computation Elements (PCEs) require an accurate and timely Traffic Engineering Database (TED). Traditionally this TED has been obtained from a link state routing protocol supporting traffic engineering extensions. This document discusses possible alternatives and enhancements to such an approach and their potential impacts on network nodes, routing protocols, and PCEs.
 

WSON Standardization

Wavelength Switched Optical Networks (WSON) are Wavelength Division Multiplexing (WDM) based networks that include switching elements that can switch based on the wavelength or the frequency of signals transported over optical fiber. Although originally included in the overall set of Generalized Multi-Protocol Label Switching (GMPLS) based control plane protocols, optical technology developments have gone beyond the optical systems originally envisioned within GMPLS.
