1. Introduction
With the evolution and deployment of OTN technology, it is necessary
that appropriate enhanced control technology support be provided for
[G709-2012].
[OTN-FWK] provides a framework to allow the development of protocol
extensions to support GMPLS and Path Computation Element (PCE)
control of OTN as specified in [G709-2012]. Based on this framework,
[OTN-INFO] evaluates the information needed by the routing and
signaling process in OTNs to support GMPLS control of OTN.
[RFC4328] describes the control technology details that are specific
to the 2001 revision of the G.709 specification. This document
updates [RFC4328] to provide Resource ReserVation Protocol-Traffic
Engineering (RSVP-TE) extensions to support of control for [G709-
2012].
2. Terminology
The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT",
"SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and "OPTIONAL" in this
document are to be interpreted as described in [RFC2119].
3. GMPLS Extensions for the Evolving G.709 - Overview
New features for the evolving OTN, for example, new ODU0, ODU2e, ODU4
and ODUflex containers are specified in [G709-2012]. The
corresponding new signal types are summarized below:
- Optical Channel Transport Unit (OTUk):
. OTU4
- Optical Channel Data Unit (ODUk):
. ODU0
. ODU2e
. ODU4
. ODUflex
A new Tributary Slot Granularity (TS Granularity, TSG) (i.e., 1.25
Gbps) is also described in [G709-2012]. Thus, there are now two TS
granularities for the foundation OTN ODU1, ODU2 and ODU3 containers.
Zhang Expires July 2013 [Page 3]
draft-ietf-ccamp-gmpls-signaling-g709v3-06.txt January 2013
The TS granularity at 2.5 Gbps is used on legacy interfaces while the
new 1.25 Gbps is used on the new interfaces.
In addition to the support of ODUk mapping into OTUk (k = 1, 2, 3,
4), the evolving OTN [G.709-V3] encompasses the multiplexing of ODUj
(j = 0, 1, 2, 2e, 3, flex) into an ODUk (k > j), as described in
Section 3.1.2 of [OTN-FWK].
Virtual Concatenation (VCAT) of Optical channel Payload Unit-k (OPUk)
(OPUk-Xv, k = 1/2/3, X = 1...256) is also supported by [G709-2012].
Note that VCAT of OPU0 / OPU2e / OPU4 / OPUflex is not supported per
[G709-2012].
[RFC4328] describes GMPLS signaling extensions to support the control
for the 2001 revision of the G.709 specification. However, [RFC4328]
needs to be updated because it does not provide the means to signal
all the new signal types and related mapping and multiplexing
functionalities. Moreover, it supports only the deprecated auto-
Multiframe Structure Identifier (MSI) mode which assumes that the
Tributary Port Number (TPN) is automatically assigned in the transmit
direction and not checked in the receive direction.
This document extends the G.709 Traffic Parameters described in
[RFC4328] and presents a new flexible and scalable OTN label format.
Additionally, procedures about Tributary Port Number assignment
through control plane are also provided in this document.
4. Generalized Label Request
The Generalized Label Request, as described in [RFC3471], carries the
Label Switched Path (LSP) Encoding Type, the Switching Type and the
Generalized Protocol Identifier (G-PID).
[RFC4328] extends the Generalized Label Request, introducing two new
code-points for the LSP Encoding Type (i.e., G.709 ODUk (Digital
Path) and G.709 Optical Channel) and adding a list of G-PID values in
order to accommodate the 2001 revision of the G.709 specification.
This document follows these extensions and a new Switching Type is
introduced to indicate the ODUk switching capability [G709-2012] in
order to support backward compatibility with [RFC4328], as described
in [OTN-FWK]. The new Switching Type (OTN-TDM Switching Type) is
defined in [OTN-OSPF].
This document also updates the G-PID values defined in [RFC4328]:
Zhang Expires July 2013 [Page 4]
draft-ietf-ccamp-gmpls-signaling-g709v3-06.txt January 2013
Value G-PID Type
----- ----------
47 ODU-2.5G: Transport of Digital Paths (e.g., at 2.5, 10 and
40 Gbps) via 2.5Gbps TSG
49 CBRa: Asynchronous Constant Bit Rate (CBR) (e.g.,
mapping of CBR2G5, CBR10G and CBR40G)
50 CBRb: Bit synchronous Constant Bit Rate (e.g., mapping
of CBR2G5, CBR10G, CBR40G, CBR10G3 and supra-
2.488 CBR Gbit/s signal (carried by OPUflex))
32 ATM: Mapping of Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM) cell
stream (e.g., at 1.25, 2.5, 10 and 40 Gbps)
51 BSOT: Non-specific client Bit Stream with Octet Timing
(e.g., Mapping of 1.25, 2.5, 10, 40 and 100 Gbps
Bit Stream)
52 BSNT: Non-specific client Bit Stream without Octet
Timing (e.g., Mapping of 1.25, 2.5, 10, 40 and
100 Gbps Bit Stream)
Note: Values 32, 47, 49 and 50 include mapping of Synchronous Digital
Hierarchy (SDH).
In the case of ODU multiplexing, the Lower Order ODU (LO ODU) (i.e.,
the client signal) may be multiplexed into Higher Order ODU (HO ODU)
via 1.25G TSG, 2.5G TSG or any one of them (i.e., TSG
Auto_Negotiation is enabled). Since the G-PID type "ODUk" defined in
[RFC4328] is only used for 2.5Gbps TSG, two new G-PID types are
defined as follows:
- ODU-1.25G: Transport of Digital Paths at 1.25, 2.5, 10, 40 and 100
Gbps via 1.25Gbps TSG
- ODU-any: Transport of Digital Paths at 1.25, 2.5, 10, 40 and 100
Gbps via 1.25 or 2.5Gbps TSG (i.e., the fallback
procedure is enabled and the default value of 1.25Gbps
TSG can be fallen back to 2.5Gbps if needed)
In addition, some other new G-PID types are defined to support other
new client signals described in [G709-2012]:
- CBRc: Mapping of constant bit-rate signals with justification
into OPUk (k = 0, 1, 2, 3, 4) via Generic Mapping
Procedure (GMP) (i.e., mapping of sub-1.238, supra-
Zhang Expires July 2013 [Page 5]
draft-ietf-ccamp-gmpls-signaling-g709v3-06.txt January 2013
1.238 to sub-2.488, close-to 9.995, close-to 40.149
and close-to 104.134 Gbit/s CBR client signal)
- 1000BASE-X: Mapping of a 1000BASE-X signal via timing transparent
transcoding into OPU0
- FC-1200: Mapping of a FC-1200 signal via timing transparent
transcoding into OPU2e
The following table summarizes the new G-PID values with respect to
the LSP Encoding Type:
Value G-PID Type LSP Encoding Type
----- ---------- -----------------
59(TBA) G.709 ODU-1.25G G.709 ODUk
60(TBA) G.709 ODU-any G.709 ODUk
61(TBA) CBRc G.709 ODUk
62(TBA) 1000BASE-X G.709 ODUk (k=0)
63(TBA) FC-1200 G.709 ODUk (k=2e)
Note: Values 59 and 60 include mapping of SDH.
5. Extensions for Traffic Parameters for the Evolving G.709
The Traffic Parameters for OTN-TDM capable Switching Type are carried
in the OTN-TDM SENDER_TSPEC and FLOWSPEC objects. The objects have
the following class and type:
- OTN-TDM SENDER_TSPEC Object: Class = 12, C-Type = 7 (TBA)
- OTN-TDM FLOWSPEC Object: Class = 9, C-Type = 7 (TBA)
The format of Traffic Parameters in these two objects is defined as
follows:
0 1 2 3
0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1

Signal Type: 8 bits
Zhang Expires July 2013 [Page 6]
draft-ietf-ccamp-gmpls-signaling-g709v3-06.txt January 2013
As defined in [RFC4328] Section 3.2.1, with the following
additional values:
Value Type
----- ----
4 ODU4 (i.e., 100 Gbps)
9 OCh at 100 Gbps
10 ODU0 (i.e., 1.25 Gbps)
11 ODU2e (i.e., 10Gbps for FC1200 and GE LAN)
12~19 Reserved (for future use)
20 ODUflex(CBR) (i.e., 1.25*N Gbps)
21 ODUflex(Generic Framing Procedure-Framed (GFP-F)),
resizable (i.e., 1.25*N Gbps)
22 ODUflex(GFP-F), non resizable (i.e., 1.25*N Gbps)
23~255 Reserved (for future use)
N: 8 bits
In case of ODUflex(GFP) signal types (both resizable and non
resizable), this field indicates the number of tributary slots
needed for the requested ODUflex(GFP). For other signal types,
this field is not necessary and MUST be set to 0.
NVC: 16 bits
As defined in [RFC4328] Section 3.2.3.
Multiplier (MT): 16 bits
As defined in [RFC4328] Section 3.2.4.
Bit_Rate: 32 bits
In case of ODUflex(CBR) signal type, this field indicates the
nominal bit rate of ODUflex(CBR) expressed in bytes per second,
encoded as a 32-bit IEEE single-precision floating-point number
(referring to [RFC4506] and [IEEE]). The value contained in the
Bit Rate field has to keep into account both 239/238 factor and
the Transcoding factor. For other signal types, this field is not
necessary and MUST be set to 0.
Tolerance: 16 bits
In case of ODUflex(CBR) signal type, this field indicates the bit
rate tolerance (part per million, ppm) of the ODUflex(CBR)
Zhang Expires July 2013 [Page 7]
draft-ietf-ccamp-gmpls-signaling-g709v3-06.txt January 2013
encoded as an unsigned integer, which MUST be bounded in
0~100ppm. For other signal types, this field is not necessary and
MUST be set to 0.
5.1. Usage of ODUflex(CBR) Traffic Parameters
In case of ODUflex(CBR), the information of Bit_Rate and Tolerance in
the ODUflex Traffic Parameters MUST be used to determine the actual
bandwidth of ODUflex(CBR) (i.e., Bit_Rate * (1 +/- Tolerance)).
Therefore the total number of tributary slots N in the HO ODUk link
can be reserved correctly. Here:
N = Ceiling of
ODUflex(CBR) nominal bit rate * (1 + ODUflex(CBR) bit rate tolerance)
---------------------------------------------------------------------
ODTUk.ts nominal bit rate * (1 - HO OPUk bit rate tolerance)
In this formula, the ODUflex(CBR) nominal bit rate is the bit rate of
the ODUflex(CBR) on the line side, i.e., the client signal bit rate
after applying the 239/238 factor (according to Clause 7.3, Table 7-2
of [G709-2012]) and the transcoding factor T (if needed) on the CBR
client. According to clauses 17.7.3, 17.7.4 and 17.7.5 of [G709-
2012]:
ODUflex(CBR) nominal bit rate = CBR client bit rate * (239/238) / T
The ODTUk.ts (Optical channel Data Tributary Unit k with ts tributary
slots) nominal bit rate is the nominal bit rate of the tributary slot
of ODUk, as shown in Table 1 (referring to Table 7-7 of [G709-2012]).
Table 1 - Actual TS bit rate of ODUk (in Kbps)
ODUk.ts Minimum Nominal Maximum
-----------------------------------------------------------
ODU2.ts 1,249,384.632 1,249,409.620 1,249,434.608
ODU3.ts 1,254,678.635 1,254,703.729 1,254,728.823
ODU4.ts 1,301,683.217 1,301,709.251 1,301,735.285
Note that:
Minimum bit rate of ODUTk.ts =
ODTUk.ts nominal bit rate * (1 - HO OPUk bit rate tolerance)
Maximum bit rate of ODTUk.ts =
ODTUk.ts nominal bit rate * (1 + HO OPUk bit rate tolerance)
Zhang Expires July 2013 [Page 8]
draft-ietf-ccamp-gmpls-signaling-g709v3-06.txt January 2013
Where: HO OPUk bit rate tolerance = 20ppm
Therefore, a node receiving a PATH message containing ODUflex(CBR)
nominal bit rate and tolerance can allocate precise number of
tributary slots and set up the cross-connection for the ODUflex
service.
Note that for different ODUk, the bit rates of the tributary slots
are different, and so the total number of tributary slots to be
reserved for the ODUflex(CBR) MAY not be the same on different HO
ODUk links.
An example is given below to illustrate the usage of ODUflex(CBR)
Traffic Parameters.
As shown in Figure 1, assume there is an ODUflex(CBR) service
requesting a bandwidth of (2.5Gbps, +/-100ppm) from node A to node C.
In other words, the ODUflex Traffic Parameters indicate that Signal
Type is 20 (ODUflex(CBR)), Bit_Rate is 2.5Gbps and Tolerance is
100ppm.

Figure 1 - Example of ODUflex(CBR) Traffic Parameters
- On the HO ODU4 link between node A and B:
The maximum bit rate of the ODUflex(CBR) equals 2.5Gbps * (1 +
100ppm), and the minimum bit rate of the tributary slot of ODU4
equals 1,301,683.217 Kbps, so the total number of tributary slots
N1 to be reserved on this link is:
N1 = ceiling (2.5Gbps * (1 + 100ppm) / 1,301,683.217 Kbps) = 2
- On the HO ODU2 link between node B and C:
Zhang Expires July 2013 [Page 9]
draft-ietf-ccamp-gmpls-signaling-g709v3-06.txt January 2013
The maximum bit rate of the ODUflex equals 2.5Gbps * (1 +
100ppm), and the minimum bit rate of the tributary slot of ODU2
equals 1,249,384.632 Kbps, so the total number of tributary slots
N2 to be reserved on this link is:
N2 = ceiling (2.5Gbps * (1 + 100ppm) / 1,249,384.632 Kbps) = 3
5.2. Usage of ODUflex(GFP) Traffic Parameters
[G709-2012] recommends that the ODUflex(GFP) will fill an integral
number of tributary slots of the smallest HO ODUk path over which the
ODUflex(GFP) may be carried, as shown in Table 2.
Table 2 - Recommended ODUflex(GFP) bit rates and tolerance
ODU type | Nominal bit-rate | Tolerance
--------------------------------+------------------+-----------
ODUflex(GFP) of N TS, 1<=N<=8 | N * ODU2.ts | +/-100 ppm
ODUflex(GFP) of N TS, 9<=N<=32 | N * ODU3.ts | +/-100 ppm
ODUflex(GFP) of N TS, 33<=N<=80 | N * ODU4.ts | +/-100 ppm
Since each hop on an ODUflex(GFP) LSP requires the same number of
tributary slots (i.e., "N" in Table 2), the Traffic Parameters for
ODUflex(GFP) just need to carry "N" value to indicate the number of
TSs rather than carrying the Bit_Rate and Tolorance.
5.3. Notification on Errors of OTN-TDM Traffic Parameters
There is no Adspec associated with the OTN-TDM SENDER_TSPEC. Either
the Adspec is omitted or an Int-serv Adspec with the Default General
Characterization Parameters and Guaranteed Service fragment is used,
see [RFC2210].
For a particular sender in a session, the contents of the FLOWSPEC
object received in a Resv message SHOULD be identical to the contents
of the SENDER_TSPEC object received in the corresponding Path
message. If the objects do not match, a ResvErr message with a
"Traffic Control Error/Bad Flowspec value" error SHOULD be generated.
Intermediate and egress nodes MUST verify that the node itself, and
the interfaces on which the LSP will be established, can support the
requested Signal Type, NVC, Tolerance and Bit_Rate values. If the
requested value(s) cannot be supported, the receiver node MUST
generate a PathErr message with a "Traffic Control Error/Service
unsupported" indication (see [RFC2205]).
Zhang Expires July 2013 [Page 10]
draft-ietf-ccamp-gmpls-signaling-g709v3-06.txt January 2013
In addition, if the MT field is received with a zero value, the node
MUST generate a PathErr message with a "Traffic Control Error/Bad
Tspec value" indication (see [RFC2205]).
Further, if the Signal Type is not ODU1, ODU2 or ODU3, and the NVC
field is not 0, the node MUST generate a PathErr message with a
"Traffic Control Error/Bad Tspec value" indication (see [RFC2205]).
6. Generalized Label
This section defines the format of the OTN-TDM Generalized Label.
6.1. OTN-TDM Switching Type Generalized Label
The following is the Generalized Label format for that MUST be used
with the OTN-TDM Switching Type:
0 1 2 3
0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
| TPN | Reserved | Length |
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
~ Bit Map ...... ~
~ ...... | Padding Bits ~
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
The OTN-TDM Generalized Label is used to indicate how the LO ODUj
signal is multiplexed into the HO ODUk link. Note that the LO OUDj
signal type is indicated by Traffic Parameters, while the type of HO
ODUk link is identified by the selected interface carried in the
IF_ID RSVP_HOP Object.
TPN (12 bits): indicates the TPN for the assigned Tributary Slot(s).
- In case of LO ODUj multiplexed into HO ODU1/ODU2/ODU3, only the
lower 6 bits of TPN field are significant and the other bits of
TPN MUST be set to 0.
- In case of LO ODUj multiplexed into HO ODU4, only the lower 7
bits of TPN field are significant and the other bits of TPN
MUST be set to 0.
- In case of ODUj mapped into OTUk (j=k), the TPN is not needed
and this field MUST be set to 0.
Zhang Expires July 2013 [Page 11]
draft-ietf-ccamp-gmpls-signaling-g709v3-06.txt January 2013
Per [G709-2012], The TPN is used to allow for correct demultiplexing
in the data plane. When an LO ODUj is multiplexed into HO ODUk
occupying one or more TSs, a new TPN value is configured at the two
ends of the HO ODUk link and is put into the related MSI byte(s) in
the OPUk overhead at the (traffic) ingress end of the link, so that
the other end of the link can learn which TS(s) is/are used by the LO
ODUj in the data plane.
According to [G709-2012], the TPN field MUST be set as according to
the following tables:
Table 3 - TPN Assignment Rules (2.5Gbps TS granularity)
+-------+-------+----+----------------------------------------------+
|HO ODUk|LO ODUj|TPN | TPN Assignment Rules |

Note that in the case of "Flexible", the value of TPN MAY not be

Zhang Expires July 2013 [Page 12]
draft-ietf-ccamp-gmpls-signaling-g709v3-06.txt January 2013
Length (12 bits): indicates the number of bits of the Bit Map field,
i.e., the total number of TS in the HO ODUk link. The valid values
for this field are 0, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32 and 80.
In case of an ODUk mapped into OTUk, there is no need to indicate
which tributary slots will be used, so the length field MUST be set
to 0.
Bit Map (variable): indicates which tributary slots in HO ODUk that
the LO ODUj will be multiplexed into. The sequence of the Bit Map is
consistent with the sequence of the tributary slots in HO ODUk. Each
bit in the bit map represents the corresponding tributary slot in HO
ODUk with a value of 1 or 0 indicating whether the tributary slot
will be used by LO ODUj or not.
Padding bits are added after the Bit Map to make the whole label a
multiple of four bytes if necessary. Padding bits MUST be set to 0
and MUST be ignored.
6.2. Procedures
The ingress node MUST generate a Path message and specify the OTN-TDM
Switching Type and corresponding G-PID in the Generalized Label
Request object, which MUST be processed as defined in [RFC3473].
The ingress node of an LSP MAY include label ERO (Explicit Route
Object) to indicate the label in each hops along the path. Note that
the TPN in the label ERO subobject MAY not be assigned by the ingress
node. In this case, the node MUST assign a valid TPN value and then
put this value into TPN field of the label object when receiving a
Path message.
In order to create bidirectional LSP, the ingress node and upstream
node MUST generate an Upstream Label on the out outgoing interface to
indicate the reserved TSs of ODUk and the assigned TPN value in the
upstream direction. This Upstream Label is sent to the downstream
node via Path massage for upstream resource reservation.
The ingress node or upstream node MAY generate Label Set to indicate
which labels on the outgoing interface in the downstream direction
are acceptable. The downstream node will restrict its choice of
labels, i.e., TS resource and TPN value, to one which is in the Label
Set.
The ingress node or upstream node MAY also generate Suggested Label
to indicate the preference of TS resource and TPN value on the
outgoing interface in the downstream direction. The downstream node
Zhang Expires July 2013 [Page 13]
draft-ietf-ccamp-gmpls-signaling-g709v3-06.txt January 2013
is not REQUIRED to use the Suggested Label and MAY use another label
based on local decision and send it to the upstream node, as
described in [RFC3473].
When an upstream node receives a Resv message containing an LABEL
object with an OTN-TDM label, it MUST firstly identify which ODU
signal type is multiplexed or mapped into which ODU signal type
accordingly to the Traffic Parameters and the IF_ID RSVP_HOP Object
in the received message.
- In case of ODUj to ODUk multiplexing, the node MUST retrieve the
reserved tributary slots in the ODUk by its downstream neighbor
node according to the position of the bits that are set to 1 in
the Bit Map field. The node determines the TS type (according to
the total TS number of the ODUk, or pre-configured TS type), so
that the node can multiplex the ODUj into the ODUk based on the TS
type. The node MUST also retrieve the TPN value assigned by its
downstream neighbor node from the label, and fill the TPN into the
related MSI byte(s) in the OPUk overhead in the data plane, so
that the downstream neighbor node can check whether the TPN
received from the data plane is consistent with the ExMSI and
determine whether there is any mismatch defect. Note that the
Length field in the label format MAY be used to indicate the TS
type of the HO ODUk (i.e., TS granularity at 1.25Gbps or 2.5Gbps)
since the HO ODUk type can be known from IF_ID RSVP_HOP Object. In
some cases when there is no Link Management Protocol (LMP) or
routing to make the two end points of the link to know the TSG,
the TSG information used by another end can be deduced from the
label format. For example, for HO ODU2 link, the value of the
length filed will be 4 or 8, which indicates the TS granularity is
2.5Gbps or 1.25Gbps, respectively.
- In case of ODUk to OTUk mapping, the size of Bit Map field MUST be
0 and no additional procedure is needed.
When a downstream node or egress node receives a Path message
containing Generalized Label Request object for setting up an ODUj
LSP from its upstream neighbor node, the node MUST generate an OTN-
TDM label according to the signal type of the requested LSP and the
free resources (i.e., free tributary slots of ODUk) that will be
reserved for the LSP, and send the label to its upstream neighbor
node.
- In case of ODUj to ODUk multiplexing, the node MUST firstly
determine the size of the Bit Map field according to the signal
type and the tributary slot type of ODUk, and then set the bits to
1 in the Bit Map field corresponding to the reserved tributary
Zhang Expires July 2013 [Page 14]
draft-ietf-ccamp-gmpls-signaling-g709v3-06.txt January 2013
slots. The node MUST also assign a valid TPN, which MUST NOT
collide with other TPN value used by existing LO ODU connections
in the selected HO ODU link, and configure the Expected MSI
(ExMSI) using this TPN. Then, the assigned TPN MUST be filled into
the label.
- In case of ODUk to OTUk mapping, TPN field MUST be set to 0. Bit
Map information is not REQUIRED and MUST NOT be included, so
Length field MUST be set to 0 as well.
6.2.1. Notification on Label Error
When an upstream node receives a Resv message containing an LABEL
object with an OTN-TDM label, the node MUST verify if the label is
acceptable. If the label is not acceptable, the node MUST generate a
ResvErr message with a "Routing problem/Unacceptable label value"
indication. Per [RFC3473], the generated ResvErr message MAY include
an ACCEPTABLE_LABEL_SET object. With the exception of label
semantics, downstream node processing a received ResvErr messages and
of ACCEPTABLE_LABEL_SET objects is not modified by this document.
Similarly, when a downstream node receives a Path message containing
an UPSTREAM_LABEL object with an OTN-TDM label, the node MUST verify
if the label is acceptable. If the label is not acceptable, the node
MUST generate a PathErr message with a "Routing problem/Unacceptable
label value" indication. Per [RFC3473], the generated ResvErr message
MAY include an ACCEPTABLE_LABEL_SET object. With the exception of
label semantics, downstream node processing received PathErr messages
and of ACCEPTABLE_LABEL_SET objects is not modified by this document.
A received label SHALL be considered unacceptable when one of the
following cases occurs:
- The received label doesn't conform to local policy;
- Invalid value in the length field;
- The selected link only supports 2.5Gbps TS granularity while the
Length field in the label along with ODUk signal type indicates
the 1.25Gbps TS granularity;
- The label includes an invalid TPN value that breaks the TPN
assignment rules;
- The indicated resources (i.e., the number of "1" in the Bit Map
field) are inconsistent with the Traffic Parameters.
Zhang Expires July 2013 [Page 15]
draft-ietf-ccamp-gmpls-signaling-g709v3-06.txt January 2013
6.3. Supporting Virtual Concatenation and Multiplication
Per [RFC6344], the Virtual Concatenation Groups (VCGs) can be created
using Co-Signaled style or Multiple LSPs style.
In case of Co-Signaled style, the explicit ordered list of all labels
MUST reflect the order of VCG members, which is similar to [RFC4328].
In case of multiplexed virtually concatenated signals (NVC > 1), the
first label MUST indicate the components of the first virtually
concatenated signal; the second label MUST indicate the components of
the second virtually concatenated signal; and so on. In case of
multiplication of multiplexed virtually concatenated signals (MT >
1), the first label MUST indicate the components of the first
multiplexed virtually concatenated signal; the second label MUST
indicate components of the second multiplexed virtually concatenated
signal; and so on.
Support for Virtual Concatenation of ODU1, ODU2 and ODU3 signal
types, as defined by [RFC6344], is not modified by this document.
Virtual Concatenation of other signal types is not supported by
[G709-2012].
Multiplier (MT) usage is as defined in [RFC6344] and [RFC4328].
6.4. Examples
The following examples are given in order to illustrate the label
format described in Section 6.1 of this document.
(1) ODUk into OTUk mapping:
In such conditions, the downstream node along an LSP returns a label
indicating that the ODUk (k=1, 2, 3, 4) is directly mapped into the
corresponding OTUk. The following example label indicates an ODU1
mapped into OTU1.
0 1 2 3
0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
| TPN = 0 | Reserved | Length = 0 |
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
(2) ODUj into ODUk multiplexing:
In such conditions, this label indicates that an ODUj is multiplexed
into several tributary slots of OPUk and then mapped into OTUk. Some
instances are shown as follow:
Zhang Expires July 2013 [Page 16]
draft-ietf-ccamp-gmpls-signaling-g709v3-06.txt January 2013
- ODU0 into ODU2 Multiplexing:
0 1 2 3
0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1

| TPN = 2 | Reserved | Length = 8 |
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
|0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0| Padding Bits (0) |
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
This above label indicates an ODU0 multiplexed into the second
tributary slot of ODU2, wherein there are 8 TS in ODU2 (i.e., the
type of the tributary slot is 1.25Gbps), and the TPN value is 2.
- ODU1 into ODU2 Multiplexing with 1.25Gbps TS granularity:
0 1 2 3
0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
| TPN = 1 | Reserved | Length = 8 |
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
|0 1 0 1 0 0 0 0| Padding Bits (0) |
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
This above label indicates an ODU1 multiplexed into the 2nd and the
4th tributary slot of ODU2, wherein there are 8 TS in ODU2 (i.e., the
type of the tributary slot is 1.25Gbps), and the TPN value is 1.
- ODU2 into ODU3 Multiplexing with 2.5Gbps TS granularity:
0 1 2 3
0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1

|0 1 1 0 1 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0| Padding Bits (0) |
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
This above label indicates an ODU2 multiplexed into the 2nd, 3rd, 5th
and 7th tributary slot of ODU3, wherein there are 16 TS in ODU3
(i.e., the type of the tributary slot is 2.5Gbps), and the TPN value
is 1.

draft-ietf-ccamp-gmpls-signaling-g709v3-06.txt January 2013
7. Supporting Hitless Adjustment of ODUflex (GFP)
[G7044] describes the procedure of ODUflex (GFP) hitless resizing
using Link Connection Resize (LCR) and Bandwidth Resize (BWR)
protocols in OTN data plane.
For the control plane, signaling messages are REQUIRED to initiate
the adjustment procedure. Section 2.5 and Section 4.6.4 of [RFC3209]
describe how the Shared Explicit (SE) style is used in Traffic
Engineering (TE) network for bandwidth increasing and decreasing,
which is still applicable for triggering the ODUflex (GFP) adjustment
procedure in data plane.
Note that the SE style MUST be used at the beginning when creating a
resizable ODUflex connection (Signal Type = 21). Otherwise an error
with Error Code "Conflicting reservation style" MUST be generated
when performing bandwidth adjustment.
- Bandwidth increasing
For the ingress node, in order to increase the bandwidth of an
ODUflex (GFP) connection, a Path message with SE style (keeping
Tunnel ID unchanged and assigning a new LSP ID) MUST be sent
along the path.
The ingress node will trigger the BWR protocol when successful
completion of LCR protocols on every hop after Resv message is
processed. On success of BWR, the ingress node SHOULD send a
PathTear message to delete the old control state (i.e., the
control state of the ODUflex (GFP) before resizing) on the
control plane.
A downstream node receiving Path message with SE style compares
the old Traffic Parameters (stored locally) with the new one
carried in the Path message, to determine the number of TS to be
added. After choosing and reserving new free TS, the downstream
node MUST send back a Resv message carrying both the old and new
LABEL Objects in the SE flow descriptor.
An upstream neighbor receiving Resv message with SE flow
descriptor MUST determine which TS are added and trigger the LCR
protocol between itself and its downstream neighbor node.
- Bandwidth decreasing
For the ingress node, a Path message with SE style SHOULD also be
sent for ODUflex bandwidth decreasing.
Zhang Expires July 2013 [Page 18]
draft-ietf-ccamp-gmpls-signaling-g709v3-06.txt January 2013
The ingress node will trigger the BWR protocol when successful
completion of LCR handshake on every hop after Resv message is
processed. On success of BWR, the second step of LCR, i.e., link
connection decrease procedure will be started on every hop of the
connection. After completion of bandwidth decreasing, the ingress
node SHOULD send a ResvErr message to tear down the old control
state.
A downstream node receiving Path message with SE style compares
the old Traffic Parameters with the new one carried in the Path
message to determine the number of TS to be decreased. After
choosing TSs to be decreased, the downstream node MUST send back
a Resv message carrying both the old and new LABEL Objects in the
SE flow descriptor.
An upstream neighbor receiving Resv message with SE flow
descriptor MUST determine which TS are decreased and trigger the
first step of LCR protocol (i.e., LCR handshake) between itself
and its downstream neighbor node.
8. Control Plane Backward Compatibility Considerations
As described in [OTN-FWK], since the [RFC4328] has been deployed in
the network for the nodes that support the 2001 revision of the G.709
specification, control plane backward compatibility SHOULD be taken
into consideration. More specifically:
o Nodes supporting this document SHOULD support [OTN-OSPF].
o Nodes supporting this document MAY support [RFC4328] signaling.
o A node supporting both sets of procedures (i.e., [RFC4328] and
this document) is not REQUIRED to signal an LSP using both
procedures, i.e., to act as a signaling version translator.
o Ingress nodes that support both sets of procedures MAY select
which set of procedures to follow based on routing information or
local policy.
o Per [RFC3473], nodes that do not support this document will
generate a PathErr message, with a "Routing problem/Switching
Type" indication.
Zhang Expires July 2013 [Page 19]
draft-ietf-ccamp-gmpls-signaling-g709v3-06.txt January 2013
9. Security Considerations
This document introduces no new security considerations to the
existing GMPLS signaling protocols. Referring to [RFC3473] and
[RFC4328], further details of the specific security measures are
provided. Additionally, [RFC5920] provides an overview of security
vulnerabilities and protection mechanisms for the GMPLS control
plane.
10. IANA Considerations
Three RSVP C-Types are defined for OTN-TDM Traffic Parameters and
OTN-TDM Generalized Label in this document:
http://www.iana.org/assignments/rsvp-parameters
- OTN-TDM SENDER_TSPEC and FLOWSPEC objects:
o OTN-TDM SENDER_TSPEC Object: Class = 12, C-Type = 7 (see
Section 5)
o OTN-TDM FLOWSPEC Object: Class = 9, C-Type = 7 (see Section 5)
- OTN-TDM Generalized Label Object:
o OTN-TDM Generalized Label Object: Class = 16, C-Type = 2 (see
Section 6.1)
IANA maintains the "Generalized Multi-Protocol Label Switching
(GMPLS) Signaling Parameters" registry (see
http://www.iana.org/assignments/gmpls-sig-parameters). "Generalized
PIDs (G-PID)" subregistry is included in this registry, which will be
extended and updated by this document as below:
