Title : Applicability of Access Node Control Mechanism to PON based Broadband Networks

The purpose of this document is to provide applicability of the
Access Node Control Mechanism, as described in [RFC5851],
to PON based broadband access. The need for an Access Node Control
Mechanism between a Network Access Server (NAS) and an Access Node
Complex (a combination of Optical Line Termination (OLT) and
Optical Network Termination (ONT) elements) is described in a
multi-service reference architecture in order to perform QoS-
related, service-related and Subscriber-related operations. The
Access Node Control Mechanism is also extended for interaction
between components of the Access Node Complex (OLT and ONT). The
Access Node Control mechanism will ensure that the transmission of
information between the NAS and Access Node Complex (ANX) and
between the OLT and ONT within an ANX does not need to go through
distinct element managers but rather uses a direct device-to-
device communication and stays on net. This allows for performing
access link related operations within those network elements to
meet performance objectives.
