Motivation
Current backbone networks are migrating to an IP over WDM scenario.
Common control plane for IP and optical layers.
Open issues:• How should the IP and optical
resources be used?
• Which is the impact of MTE algorithms at network equipment?

Transport plane legacy technology is SDH.
The main advantages of SDH with respect to
previous technologies are:
• (1) interfaces with optical fiber;
• (2) transmission rates up to 40 Gbps;
• (3) operational support;
• (4) fast restoration (50 ms);
• (5) grooming of multiple technologies

Conclusions
Definition of two MTE algorithms to deal with the
congestion of the IP layer in network operator.
• Firstly use the already deployed IP resources.
Performance:
• Longest algorithm achieves a higher congestion reduction.
• Largest algorithm establishes less lightpaths.
Future work:
• Comparison of these mechanisms with cost oriented
optimization algorithm.
• Implementation of such algorithms in PCE based
architectures.
