1.  Introduction

   Generalised Multiprotocol Label Switched (GMPLS) is widely used in
   Wavelength Switched Optical Network (WSON) to support the optical
   circuits set-up through the signalling between Core Nodes and Edge
   Nodes.  This extension addresses the use cases described by [RFC7698]
   Ch.3.3 and supports the information, needed in Spectrum Switched
   Optical Network (SSON), to signal a Media Channel and the associated
   carriers set request.  The new set of parameters is related to the
   Media Channel and the carrier(s) routed with it and keep the backward
   compatibility with the WSON signalling.  In particular this memo
   wants do address the use cases where the SSON LSP (the Media Channel
   in RFC7698) carries multiple carrier (OTSi) containing same Payload.
   The set of the carriers can be seen as single Logical circuit.  This
   memo can be considered as the extension of [RFC7792].  The contents

   and the parameters reflect the experimental activity on IP over SSON
   recently done by some vendors and research consortia.

   Figure 1 shows how the multiple carrier are mapped into a Media
   Channel.  A set of parameters must be shared on the UNI to allow the
   GMPLS to do the proper routing and Spectrum Assignment and decide the
   carrier position.

2.  Client interface parameters

   The Edge Node interface can have one or multiple carriers (OTSi).
   All the carrier have the same characteristics and are provisionable
   in terms of:

   Number of subcarriers:
      This parameter indicates the number of subcarriers available for
      the super-channel in case the Transceiver can support multiple
      carrier circuits.

   Central frequency (see G.694.1 Table 1):

Galimberti, et al.         Expires May 3, 2018                  [Page 3]
Internet-Drafdraft-ggalimbe-ccamp-flexigrid-carrier-label-0 October 2017

      This parameter indicates the Central frequency value that Ss and
      Rs will be set to work (in THz).  See the details in Section 6/
      G.694.1 or based on "n" value explanation and the following "k"
      values definition in case of multicarrier transceivers.

   Central frequency granularity:
      This parameter indicates the Central frequency granularity
      supported by the transceiver, this value is combined with k and n
      value to calculate the central frequency of the carrier or sub-
      carriers.

   Minimum channel spacing:
      This is the minimum nominal difference in frequency (in GHz)
      between two adjacent channels (or carriers) depending on the
      Transceiver characteristics.

   Bit rate / Baud rate of optical tributary signals:
      Optical Tributary Signal bit (for NRZ signals) rate or Symbol (for
      Multiple bit per symbol) rate .

   FEC Coding:
      This parameter indicate what Forward Error Correction (FEC) code
      is used at Ss and Rs (R/W) (not mentioned in G.698.2).  .

   Wavelength Range (see G.694.1):  [ITU.G694.1]
      This parameter indicate minimum and maximum wavelength spectrum in
      a definite wavelength Band (L, C and S).

   Modulation format:
      This parameter indicates the list of supported Modulation Formats
      and the provisioned Modulation Format..

   Inter carrier skew:
      This parameter indicates, in case of multi-carrier transceivers
      the maximum skew between the sub-carriers supported by the
      transceiver.

   Laser Output power:
      This parameter provisions the Transceiver Output power, it can be
      either a setting and measured value.

   receiver input power:
      This parameter provisions the Min and MAX input pover suppotred by
      the Transceiver, i.e. Receiver Sensitivity.

   The above parameters are related to the Edge Node Transceiver and are
   used by the Core Network GMPLS in order to calculate the optical
   feasibility and the spectrum allocation.  The parameters can be

   shared between the Client and the Network via LMP or provisioned in
   the Network by an EMS or an operator OSS.

3.  Use Cases

   The use cases are described in draft-ietf-ccamp-dwdm-if-mng-ctrl-fwk
   and [RFC7698]

4.  Signalling Extensions

   Some of the above parameters can be applied to RFC7792 (SENDER_TSPEC/
   FLOWSPEC).  The above parameters could be applied to [RFC4208]
   scenarios but they are valid also in case of non UNI scenarios.  The
   [RFC6205] parameters remain valid.

4.1.  New LSP set-up parameters

   When the E.N. wants to request to the C.N. a new circuit set-up
   request or the GMPLS want to signal in the SSON network the Optical
   Interface characteristics the following parameters will be provided
   to the C.N.:

   Number of available subcarriers (c):
      This parameter is an integer.

   Total bandwidth request:
      e.g. 200Gb, 400Gb, 1Tb

   Policy (strict/loose):
      Strict/loose referred to B/W and subcarrier number.

   Subcarrier bandwidth tunability:
      (optional) e.g. 34Ghz, 48GHz.

   Carrier Number: number of carrier to be allocated for the requested
         channel (16-bit unsigned integer)
         If Carrier Number == 0 no constraint set on the number of
         carriers to be used

   S strict number of subcarrier
     -  S = 0 the number of requested carriers is the maximum number
               that can be allocated (a lower value can be allocated if
               the requested bandwidth is satisfied)
     -  S = 1 the number of requested carriers is strict (must be > 0)

   Total Bandwidth: the requested total bandwidth to be supported by
         the Media Channel (32-bit IEEE float, bytes/s)
         If Total Bandwidth == 0: no bandwidth constraint is defined
         (B must be 0)

   B Bandwidth constraints
     - B = 0: the value is the maximum requested bandwidth (a lower
               value can be allocated if resources are not available)
     - B = 1: the requested bandwidth is the minimum value to be
               allocated (a higher value can be allocated if requested
               by the physical constraints of the ports)

   Reserved: unused bit (for future use, should be 0)

   Note: bandwidth unit is defined in accordance to RFC 3471
       chap. 3.1.2 Bandwith Encoding specification.  Bandwidth higher
       than 40Gb/s values must be defined (e.g. 100Gb/s, 150Gb/s
       400Gb/s, etc.)

   TLV Usage:
   Head UNI-C PATH: requested traffic constraints, the Head UNI-N node
        must satisfy when reserving the optical resources and defining
        the carriers configuration
   The TLV can be omitted: no traffic constraints is defined (resources
        allocated by UNI-N based on a local policy)

4.2.  Extension to LSP set-up reservation

   Once the GMPLS has calculated the Media Channel path, the Spectrum
   Allocation, the Sub-carrier number and frequency, the modulation
   format, the FEC and the Transmit power, sends back to the E.N. the
   path set-up confirmation providing the values of the calculated
   paramenters:

   Media Channel:
      (Grid, C.S., Identifier m and n).

   List of subcarriers:
      This parameter indicates the subcarriers to be used for the super-
      channel in case the Transceiver can support multiple carrier
      Circuits.

   Central frequency (see G.694.1 Table 1):
      Grid, Identifiers, central frequency and granularity.

   Central frequency granularity:
      This parameter indicates the Central frequency granularity
      supported by the transceiver, this value is combined with K and n
      value to calculate the central frequency on the carrier or sub-
      carriers.

   Bit rate / Baud rate of optical tributary signals:
      Optical tributary signal bit (for NRZ signals) rate or Symbol (for
      Multiple bit per symbol) rate.

   FEC Coding:
      This parameter indicate what Forward Error Correction (FEC) code
      must be used by the Transceivers (not mentioned in G.698).  .

   Modulation format:
      This parameter indicates the Modulation Formats to be set in the
      Transceivers.

   Laser Output power:
      This parameter provisions the Transceiver Output power, it can be
      either a setting and measured value.

   Circuit Path, RRO, etc:
      All these info are defined in [RFC4208].

   Carrier set-up:

     - Carrier identifier field: sub-carrier
           identifier inside the mediachannel.  Identifies the carrier
           position inside the Media Channel (16-bit unsigned integer)
     - J field:  granularity of the channel spacing, can be a
           multiple of 0.01GHz. - default value is 0.1GHz.
     - K field:  positive or negative integer (including 0) to multiply
           by J and identify the Carrier Position inside the
           Media Channel, offset from media Channel Central frequency
     - sub-TLVs: additional information related to carriers if needed.

     In summary Carrier Frequency = MC-C.F. (in THz) + K * J GHz

                         Figure 5: Port Identifier

   Port Identifier: the local upstream optical logical identifier
                    (32-bits integer, ifindex)

   Notes:
     - The Carrier Identifier is the logical circuit sub-lane position,
       a TLV for each value from 1 to the number of allocated carriers
       must be present.

     - The association of a carrier to a local link optical port is a
       local link association (depending on the local ports physical
       configuration), the sub-TLV value MUST be set by head/tail nodes
       (with transit nodes not signaling its value).
       The local port identifier is the identifier of the local link
       port on the upstream node (with respect to the LSP nominal
       direction):
         - UNI-C port in head UNI link
         - UNI-N port in tail UNI link

   TLV Usage:
     - Head UNI-C PATH: used to force specific carrier frequency/ports
       [optional use, e.g. with external PCE scenario]
     - Head UNI-N RESV: set selected configuration on head node
     - Tail UNI-N PATH: set selected configuration on tail node

   Carrier Port: the requested carrier transmit power (32-bits IEEE
                 Float, dBm), optionally used to notify the configured
                 power (in UNI client side) or force the power to the
                 to the UNI client).

   TLV Usage:
     - Head UNI-C PATH: used to force specific carrier frequency/ports
       (optional use, e.g. with external PCE scenario)
     - Head UNI-N RESV: set selected configuration on head node
     - Tail UNI-N PATH: set selected configuration on tail node

4.3.  RSVP Protocol Extensions considerations

   The additional information described in the draft, is related to the
   Media Channel supported traffic.  It could be encoded in the
   SENDER_TSPEC/FLOW_SPEC objects by extending the SSON_SENDER_TSPEC/
   SSON_FLOW_SPEC defined in RFC 7792 (or defining a new C-Type) with an
   optional TLV list or it could be encoded in a newly defined entry
   (new OBJECT or new LSP_ATTRIBUTES OBJECT TLV)

   This solution is consistent with other technology specific extensions
   (e.g.  SDH), but requires the explicit handling of the extensions by
   all nodes.

   Beside this, some of the additional information defined is local to
   the head/tail UNI link (e.g. the carrier/port association), while the
   traffic spec info should be valid end-to-end.

5.  Security Considerations

   GMPLS message security uses IPsec, as described in xxxx.  This
   document only defines new UNI objects that are carried in existing
   UNI messages, similar to the UNI objects in xxx.  This document does
   not introduce new security considerations.

6.  IANA Considerations
