Switching

Generalized MPLS (GMPLS) extends the MPLS control plane to encompass
time-division, wavelength and spatial switching. A functional
description of the extensions to MPLS signaling needed to support
the new types of switching is provided in [GMPLS-SIG]. On the other
hand, along with the current development on IP over optical
switching, there are considerable advances in optical transport
systems based on the multiple optical switching granularities.
[GMPLS-SIG] currently defines two layers of optical granularity
(wavelength and fiber). As described in [IPO-MG], a revisited
definition of waveband switching can be introduced. This document
presents a functional description of the extensions, to the GMPLS
protocol suite, to further integrate optical multi-granularity and
benefit from the features of the corresponding switching layers.

NOTE: The mail server at ietf.org can return the document in
MIME-encoded form by using the "mpack" utility. To use this
feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the "FILE"
command. To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or
a MIME-compliant mail reader. Different MIME-compliant mail readers
exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with
"multipart" MIME messages (i.e. documents which have been split
up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on
how to manipulate these messages.
Below is the data which will enable a MIME compliant mail reader
implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version of the
Internet-Draft.
