IP/WDM Optical Network Testbed: Design and Implementation
نویسندگان
چکیده
This work presents the design and implementation of an optical transparent IP/WDM network testbed. The implemented software allows the characterization of the transport, control and management planes of the network. Furthermore, it was developed a graphic user network interface for the client/management relation in the optical network. We adopted a centralized the control and management planes, obtaining economy of resources and time performance. The transport plane physical model allows the simulation of transponders, amplifiers and OXCs. They are connected with the control and management plane through the use of UDP/IP protocol and using XML for supporting the information base. The control plane provides routing and protection in the event of data plane failures. The management plane has a functional structure based on fail management, on the network configuration program, on performance monitoring, on log of changes and on the access security system.

Experimental study of dynamic IP topology reconfiguration in IP/WDM networks
With the widespread deployment of IP over WDM networks, it becomes necessary to develop dynamic lightpath and topology reconfiguration mechanisms and reconfiguration triggers that can effectively exploit WDM reconfigurability. A reconfiguration model for overlay IP/WDM networks is introduced. An IP over WDM network testbed has been set up using Telcordia MONET WADMs and IP routers. The testbed ...
متن کاملArchitectural Considerations in the Design of WDM-Based Optical Access Networks
We describe a WDM-based optical access network architecture for providing broadband Internet services. The architecture uses a passive collection and distribution network and a configurable Feeder network. Unlike earlier papers that concentrate on the physical layer design of the network, we focus on higher layer architectural considerations. In particular we discuss the joint design of the ele...
متن کاملRobust IP Backbone Network Utilizing WDM Optical Paths*
A wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) optical path-based Internet protocol (IP) backbone network is proposed as a cost-effective way of realizing robust IP-over-photonic systems. The WDM optical path is based on WDM transmission and wavelength routing. Between end-to-end IP backbone routers, the WDM optical path, a fat and robust optical pipe, is defined across photonic transport systems (PT...
متن کاملTowards an IP-centric Optimization: On the Topology Design of WDM-mesh Networks
We investigate the topology design in IP backbone networks while exploiting both the advantages of IP routing and optical networking. The emerging WDM and optical switching technologies enable the use of optically switched circuits to interconnect routers, which may not have direct fiber links with each other, in an IP-over-WDM network. All these “light circuits” form the underlying topology of...
متن کاملToward Best-eeort Services over Wdm Networks with Fair Access and Minimum Bandwidth Guarantee 1
Most existing wavelength-division multiplexed (WDM) networks employ circuit switching, typically with one session having exclusive use of one entire wavelength. Consequently they are not suitable for data applications involving bursty traac patterns. The All-Optical Network (AON) Consortium has developed an all-optical LAN/MAN testbed which provides time-slotted WDM service 1]. In this paper, w...
