GMPLS supports the description of optical switching by identifying
entries in fixed lists of switchable wavelengths (called grids)
through the encoding of lambda labels. Work within the ITU-T Study
Group 15 has defined a finer-granularity grid, and the facility to
flexibly select different widths of spectrum from the grid. This
document defines a new GMPLS lambda label format to support this
flexi-grid.
This document updates RFCs 3471 and 6205 by introducing a new
label format.
This document is a product of the Common Control and Measurement Plane Working Group of the IETF.
This is now a Proposed Standard.
