Abstract

   This memo defines extensions to LMP(rfc4209) for managing Optical
   parameters associated with Wavelength Division Multiplexing (WDM)
   systems or characterized by the Optical Transport Network (OTN) in

1.  Introduction

   This extension is based on "draft-galikunze-ccamp-g-698-2-snmp-
   mib-03" and "draft-kunze-g-698-2-management-control-framework-02",
   for the relevant interface optical parameters described in
   recommendations like ITU-T G.698.2 [ITU.G698.2].  The LMP Model from
   RFC4902 is extended to provide link property correlation between a
   client and an OLS device.  By using LMP, the capabilities of either
   end of this link are exchanged where the term 'link' refers to the
   attachment link between OXC and OLS (see Figure 1).  By performing
   link property correlation, both ends of the link can agree on a
   common parameter window that can be supported and supervised by each
   device.  The actual selection of a specific parameter value whithin
   the parameter window is outside the scope of LMP.  In GMPLS the
   parameter selection (e.g. wavelength) is performed by RSVP-TE and
   Wavelength routing by IGP.

2.  Extensions to LMP-WDM Protocol

   This document defines extensions to [RFC4209] to allow the Black Link
   (BL) parameters of G.698.2, as described in the draft draft-
   kunze-g-698-2-management-control-framework-02, to be exchanged
   between a router or optical switch and the optical line system to
   which it is attached.  In particular, this document defines
   additional Data Link sub-objects to be carried in the LinkSummary
   message defined in [RFC4204] and [RFC6205].  The OXC and OLS systems
   may be managed by different Network management systems and hence may
   not know the capability and status of their peer.  The intent of this
   draft is to enable the OXC and OLS systems to exchange this
   information.  These messages and their usage are defined in
   subsequent sections of this document.

8.  Security Considerations

   LMP message security uses IPsec, as described in [RFC4204].  This
   document only defines new LMP objects that are carried in existing
   LMP messages, similar to the LMP objects in [RFC:4209].  This
   document does not introduce new security considerations.

9.  IANA Considerations

      LMP <xref target="RFC4204"/> defines the following name spaces and
      the ways in which IANA can make assignments to these namespaces:

      -  LMP Message Type
      -  LMP Object Class
      -  LMP Object Class type (C-Type) unique within the Object Class
      -  LMP Sub-object Class type (Type) unique within the Object Class
       This memo introduces the following new assignments:

      LMP Sub-Object Class names:

     under DATA_LINK Class name (as defined in <xref target="RFC4204"/>)
        - BL_General                  (sub-object Type = TBA)
        - BL_ApplicationCode          (sub-object Type = TBA)
        - BL_VendorTransceiverClass   (sub-object Type = TBA)
        - BL_Ss                       (sub-object Type = TBA)
        - BL_Rs                       (sub-object Type = TBA)
