Multi-Area MPLS/GMPLS Interoperability Trial Over 14-Vendor Packet/TDM/ROADM/OXC Network

Overview The Generalized Multi-Protocol Label Switching (GMPLS) technology is a framework that unifies network control of various types of Network Elements (NEs) across multiple network layers. This framework not only enables network operators to simplify the development of network control functionality in their network management systems, but also opens a vista to deploy resilient and reliable networks. Since the initiation of GMPLS standardization activity in the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF), many network operators and vendors have been expending significant effort toward furnishing GMPLS control architectures, and have performed a number of MPLS/GMPLS interoperability trials.
