Internet-Draft   draft-dharinigert-ccamp-g-698-2-lmp-01     October 2012


1.  Introduction

   This extension is based on
   "draft-galikunze-ccamp-g-698-2-snmp-mib-01" and
   "draft-kunze-g-698-2-management-control-framework-02", for the
   relevant optical parameters mainly (but not restrictriced to)
   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

Internet-Draft   draft-dharinigert-ccamp-g-698-2-lmp-01     October 2012


   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].  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.

    The following new messages are defined for the WDM extension for
        ITU-T G.698.2.  [ITU.G698.2]/ITU-T G.698.1.  [ITU.G698.1]/ITU-T G.959.1.  [ITU.G959.1]

         - BL_ApplicationCode  (sub-object Type = TBA)
         - BL_Ss               (sub-object Type = TBA)
         - BL_SsRs             (sub-object Type = TBA)
         - BL_Rs               (sub-object Type = TBA)
         - BL_OLS_Status       (sub-object Type = TBA)

9.  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.


10.  IANA Considerations

   LMP [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
   [RFC4204]) - BL_General (sub-object Type = TBA) - BL_Applicationcode
   (sub-object Type = TBA) - BL_Ss (sub-object Type = TBA) - BL_SsRs
   (sub-object Type = TBA) - BL_Rs (sub-object Type = TBA) - OLS_Status
