A Perspective on Photonic Multi-Protocol Label Switching
نویسندگان
چکیده
We first review the history of MPLS (Multi-Protocol Label Switching) in order to later introduce photonic MPLS. As an emerging technology for carrying IP traffic over photonic networks, we next discuss IP over WDM networks based on the MPLS technology (λ-MPLS). Then, an optical code label switching technique and its application to MPLS (OC-MPLS) is introduced. We extensively compare advantages and disadvantages of those two approaches, which is our main objective in this paper. By discussing remaining and challenging problems of two approaches, the possibility of a future deployment of OC-MPLS is finally addressed.

متن کاملMulti Protocol Lambda Switching (MPλS)
Luc Ceuppens Calient Networks Abstract Realizing the important role that photonic switches can play in data-centric networks, a number of leading router and optical equipment vendors are collaborating to combine the control plane of MPLS with the point-and-click provisioning capabilities of photonic switches. This document describes how MPλS (Multi Protocol Lambda Switching) will enable the ser...
متن کاملPhotonic MPLS Network Architecture Based on Hikari-Router [Invited]
This paper describes multi-layer traffic engineering and signaling technologies in the photonic-GMPLS-router (Hikari-Router) network. Multi-layer t 6 c engineering, which yields the dynamic cooperation of IP and photonic layers, is described with the goal of providing IP services costeffectively. The establishment of photonic cut-through paths is triggered when the Layer 3 traf€ic loads become ...
متن کاملGMPLS Interoperability Tests in Kei-han-na Info-Communication Open Laboratory on JGN II Network
Generalized Multi-protocol Label Switching (GMPLS) technologies are expected a key technology that creates high-performance Internet backbone networks. There were many GMPLS interoperability trials. However, most of them reported the successful results only. How to set up a trial network and how to test it was generally not discussed. In this paper, as a kind of tutorial, detailed GMPLS field t...
متن کاملAn High Performance Traffic Engineering Model for All-Optical Networks - Evolutionary GMPLS Control Plane Services in All-Optical Cross-Connects
One of the major issues in the networking industry today is the tremendous demand for more and more bandwidth. With the development of all-optical networks and the use of Dense Wavelength Division Multiplexing (DWDM) technology, a new and probably very crucial milestone is being reached in network evolution. In this scenario, carriers need powerful, commercially viable and scalable tools that c...
