This document provides extensions to Generalized Multiprotocol Label
Switching (GMPLS) signaling for control of Wavelength Switched
Optical Networks (WSONs). Such extensions are applicable in WSONs
under a number of conditions including: (a) when optional
processing, such as regeneration, must be configured to occur at
specific nodes along a path, (b) where equipment must be configured
to accept an optical signal with specific attributes, or (c) where
equipment must be configured to output an optical signal with
specific attributes. This document provides mechanisms to
support distributed wavelength assignment with a choice of distributed
wavelength assignment algorithms.
This document is a product of the Common Control and Measurement Plane Working Group of the IETF.
This is now a Proposed Standard.
STANDARDS TRACK: This document specifies an Internet Standards Track
protocol for the Internet community, and requests discussion and suggestions
for improvements. Please refer to the current edition of the Official
Internet Protocol Standards (https://www.rfc-editor.org/standards) for the
standardization state and status of this protocol. Distribution of this
memo is unlimited.
