The Generalized Multi-Protocol Label Switching (GMPLS) suite of
protocols has been defined to control different switching
technologies and different applications. These include support
for requesting Time Division Multiplexing (TDM) connections, including
Synchronous Optical Network (SONET)/Synchronous Digital Hierarchy
(SDH) and Optical Transport Networks (OTNs).
This document concentrates on the signaling aspects of the GMPLS
suite of protocols. It identifies the features to be covered by the
GMPLS signaling protocol to support the capabilities of an
Automatically Switched Optical Network (ASON). This document provides
a problem statement and additional requirements for the GMPLS
signaling protocol to support the ASON functionality.
This document is a product of the Common Control and Measurement Plane
Working Group of the IETF.
