Objective of This Draftand Related Studies

• Objective of This Draft– Provides routing scheme of Lambda LSPs in the networks

specifically having constraint in TE-Link Selectivity

• Related Documents– RFC4054

• Discusses Signaling Impairment in transparent optical networks

– draft-ashwood-ccamp-gmpls-constraint-reqts-0x.txt (Expired)• Proposes to advertise abstract link information of the network

having optical constraint

– draft-shiba-ccamp-gmpls-lambda-labels-01.txt • Proposed bit-map advertisement of status of wavelength label

– draft-rabbat-ccamp-gmpls-lambda-labels-00.txt • Signaling extensions to directly assign Wavelength of Lambda LSPs

in non or limited wavelength convertible networks • Handles constraint in Label Selectivity

New Problem Statementsin This Draft

• Constraint in TE Link Selectivity – Sharp market rise of

reconfigurable optical add/drop multiplexers (ROADMs)– ROADM has constraint in TE-Link Selectivity– ROADM has two groups of tributary ports,

connectable only for East or West NNI

• GMPLS routers or other GMPLS capable nodes should

– take into account the constraint of TE Link Selectivity.

Example of ROADM Ring• LSPs in ROADM Rings

– LSPs from West Tributary Ports are terminated at East Tributary Ports – This is also true for the case of vice versa.

• Label Allocation– Approach 1 Routing Solve Label Allocation (Bit-map advertisement)

(draft-shiba-ccamp-gmpls-lambda-labels-01.txt)– Approach 2 Signaling Solve Label Allocation (Label Set + Null Upstream)

Necessity of Extension

• In addition to bit-map information of wavelength status, information of TE-Link Selectivity is necessary

• Indispensable in multi-ring, ROADM/OXC hybrid networks

Possible GMPLS Routing Extensions

• Advertise– Selectable and/or Un-selectable TE-Link

lists from advertised TE-Link– Sub-TLV Type TBD– Length: variable– Name: Selectable/Un-Selectable Link

Local Identifier

Next Action• Receiving feed back from several persons, now authors feel

necessity of an analysis draft with the different view of RFC4054.

– Model network architecture having constraint in wavelength selectivity

and/or TE-Link selectivity – Analyze signaling procedure to establish LSPs in such networks – Analyze the minimum set of routing and signaling extensions

• Thanks Akira Nagata and Akira Chugo (Fujitsu) for giving us valuable feed back.
