Signaling Extensions for Wavelength Switched Optical Networks
draft-ietf-ccamp-wson-signaling-08.txt
Abstract
This memo provides extensions to Generalized Multi-Protocol Label
Switching (GMPLS) signaling for control of Wavelength Switched
Optical Networks (WSON). Such extensions are applicable in WSONs
under a number of conditions including: (a) when optional
processing, such as regeneration, must be configured to occur at
specific nodes along a path, (b) where equipment must be configured
to accept an optical signal with specific attributes, or (c) where
equipment must be configured to output an optical signal with
specific attributes. In addition this memo provides mechanisms to
support distributed wavelength assignment with choice in distributed
wavelength assignment algorithms. These extensions build on previous
work for the control of lambda and G.709 based networks, i.e. update
RFC6205, to make it applicable to WSON-LSC capable equipment.

1. Introduction
This memo provides extensions to Generalized Multi-Protocol Label
Switching (GMPLS) signaling for control of Wavelength Switched
Optical Networks (WSON). Fundamental extensions are given to permit
simultaneous bidirectional wavelength assignment while more advanced
extensions are given to support the networks described in [RFC6163]
which feature connections requiring configuration of input, output,
and general signal processing capabilities at a node along a Label
Switched Path (LSP).
These extensions build on previous work for the control of lambda
and G.709 based networks. This document updates [RFC6205] as make it
applicable to WSON-LSC capable equipment.
Related references with this document are [WSON-Info] that provides
a high-level information model and and [WSON-Encode] that provides
common encodings that can be applicable to other protocol extensions
such as routing.

data transmission.
3. Requirements for WSON Signaling
The following requirements for GMPLS based WSON signaling are in
addition to the functionality already provided by existing GMPLS
signaling mechanisms.
3.1. WSON Signal Characterization
WSON signaling needs to convey sufficient information characterizing
the signal to allow systems along the path to determine
compatibility and perform any required local configuration. Examples
of such systems include intermediate nodes (ROADMs, OXCs, Wavelength
converters, Regenerators, OEO Switches, etc...), links (WDM systems)
and end systems (detectors, demodulators, etc...). The details of
any local configuration processes are out of the scope of this
document.
Bernstein et al. Expires November 2015 [Page 4]
Internet-Draft WSON Signaling Extensions July 2014
From [RFC6163] we have the following list of WSON signal
characteristic information:
List 1. WSON Signal Characteristics
1. Optical tributary signal class (modulation format).
2. FEC: whether forward error correction is used in the digital
stream and what type of error correcting code is used
3. Center frequency (wavelength)
4. Bit rate
5. G-PID: General Protocol Identifier for the information format
The first three items on this list can change as a WSON signal
traverses a network with regenerators, OEO switches, or wavelength
converters. These parameters are summarized in the Optical Interface
Class as defined in the [WSON-Info] and the assumption is that a
class always includes signal compatibility information.
An ability to control wavelength conversion already exists in GMPLS
signaling along with the ability to share client signal type
information (G-PID). In addition, bit rate is a standard GMPLS
signaling traffic parameter. It is referred to as Bandwidth Encoding
in [RFC3471].
3.2. Per Node Processing Configuration
In addition to configuring a node along an LSP to input or output a
signal with specific attributes, we may need to signal the node to
perform specific processing, such as 3R regeneration, on the signal
at a particular NE. [RFC6163] discussed three types of processing:
(A) Regeneration (possibly different types)
(B) Fault and Performance Monitoring
(C) Attribute Conversion
The extensions here provide for the configuration of these types of
processing at nodes along an LSP.
Bernstein et al. Expires November 2015 [Page 5]
Internet-Draft WSON Signaling Extensions July 2014
3.3. Bidirectional WSON LSPs
WSON signaling can support LSP setup consistent with the wavelength
continuity constraint for bidirectional connections. The following
cases need to be separately supported:
(a) Where the same wavelength is used for both upstream and
downstream directions
(b) Where different wavelengths can be used for both upstream and
downstream directions.
This document will review existing GMPLS bidirectional solutions
according to WSON case.
3.4. Distributed Wavelength Assignment Selection Method
WSON signaling can support the selection of a specific distributed
wavelength assignment method.
This method is beneficial in cases of equipment failure, etc., where
fast provisioning used in quick recovery is critical to protect
carriers/users against system loss. This requires efficient
signaling which supports distributed wavelength assignment, in
particular when the centralized wavelength assignment capability is
not available.
As discussed in the [RFC6163] different computational approaches for
wavelength assignment are available. One method is the use of
distributed wavelength assignment. This feature would allow the
specification of a particular approach when more than one is
implemented in the systems along the path.
3.5. Optical Impairments
This draft does not address signaling information related to optical
impairments.
4. WSON Signal Traffic Parameters, Attributes and Processing
As discussed in [RFC6163] single channel optical signals used in
WSONs are called "optical tributary signals" and come in a number of
classes characterized by modulation format and bit rate. Although
WSONs are fairly transparent to the signals they carry, to ensure
compatibility amongst various networks devices and end systems, it
can be important to include key lightpath characteristics as traffic
parameters in signaling [RFC6163].
Bernstein et al. Expires November 2015 [Page 6]
Internet-Draft WSON Signaling Extensions July 2014
LSPs signaled through extensions provided in this document MUST
apply the following signaling parameters:
. Switching Capability = WSON-LSC ([WSON-OSPF]).
. Encoding Type = Lambda ([RFC3471])
. Label Format = as defined in [RFC6205]
[RFC6205] defines the label format as applicable to LSC capable
device. This document extends [RFC6205] as make its label format
applicable also to WSON-LSC capable devices.
4.1. Traffic Parameters for Optical Tributary Signals
In [RFC3471] we see that the G-PID (client signal type) and bit rate
(byte rate) of the signals are defined as parameters and in
[RFC3473] they are conveyed Generalized Label Request object and the
RSVP SENDER_TSPEC/FLOWSPEC objects respectively.
4.2. WSON Processing HOP Attribute TLV Encoding
Section 3.2. provided the requirements for signaling to indicate to
a particular node along an LSP what type of processing to perform on
an optical signal or how to configure that node to accept or
transmit an optical signal with particular attributes.
To target a specific node, this section defines a WSON Processing
HOP Attribute TLV, which is carried in the subobjects defined in
[RSVP-RO]. The Type value of the WSON Processing HOP Attribute TLV
is TBD by IANA.
The contents of this TLV is defined in the subsequent sections.
Section 4.3 for ResourceBlockInfo sub-TLV and Section 4.4 for
WavelengthSelection sub-TLV, respectively. The TLV can be
represented in Reduced Backus-Naur Form (RBNF) [RFC5511] syntax as:
<WSON Processing HOP Attribute> ::= < ResourceBlockInfo>
[<ResourceBlockInfo>] <WavelengthSelection>
The WSON Processing HOP Attribute TLV is a type of a HOP Attributes
TLV, as defined in [RSVP-RO]. If a receiving node does not recognize
a sub-TLV, it will follow the procedure defined in [RFC5420], i.e.,
it MUST generate a PathErr with a new error value of the existing
Error Code "Unknown Attributes TLV (Sub-codes - 29)".
Bernstein et al. Expires November 2015 [Page 7]
Internet-Draft WSON Signaling Extensions July 2014
4.3. Resource Block Information Sub-TLV
The Resource block information , or ResourceBlockInfo, sub-TLV
contains a list of available Optical Interface Classes and
processing capabilities.
The format of the ResourceBlockInfo sub-TLV value field is defined
in Section 4 of [WSON-Encode].
Type Sub-TLV Name
1 (TBA) ResourceBlockInfo
At least one ResourceBlockInfo sub-TLV MUST be present in the
WSON_Processing HOP Attribute TLV. At most two ResourceBlockInfo
sub-TLVs MAY be present in the WSON_Processing HOP Attribute TLV. If
more than two sub-TLVs are encountered, the first two MUST be
processed and the rest SHOULD be ignored.
The <ResourceBlockInfo> contains several information as defined by
[WSON-Encode]. The following processing rules apply to the sub-TLV:
RB Set Field MAY contain more than one RB Identifier. Only the first
of which MUST be processed, the others SHOULD be ignored.
In case of signalin a unidirectional LSP, only one ResourceBlockInfo
sub-TLV MUST be processed and I/O bits can be safely ignored.
In case of signaling a bidirectional LSP: if only one
ResourceBlockInfo is included, bits I and O MUST be both set to 1,
if two ResourceBlockInfo sub-TLVs are included, bits I and O MUST
have different values, i.e., only one bit can be set in each
ResourceBlockInfo sub-TLV. Any violation of these detected by a
transit or egress node will incur a processing error and SHOULD NOT
trigger any RSVP message but can be logged locally, and perhaps
reported through network management mechanisms.
The rest of information available within ResourceBlockInfo sub-TLV
is Optical Interface Class List, Input Bit Rate List and Processing
Capability List. These lists MAY contain one or more elements. The
usage of WSON Processing HOP Attribute TLV for the bidirectional
case is the same as per unidirectional. When an intermediate node
uses information from this TLV to instruct a node about wavelength
Bernstein et al. Expires November 2015 [Page 8]
Internet-Draft WSON Signaling Extensions July 2014
regeneration, the same information applies to both downstream and
upstream directions.
This sub-TLV is constructed by an ingress node and the processing is
applied to all nodes (transit and egress) whose R bit is set in the
ERO HOP ATTRIBUTE subobject according to [RSVP-RO]. When the R bit
is set, a node MUST examine the ResourceBlockInfo sub-TLV present in
the subobject following the rule described in [RFC5420].
If a node processing an ERO HOP ATTRIBUTE subobject with WSON
Processing HOP Attributes TLV (which may include the
ResourceBlockInfo sub-TLVs) longer than the ERO subobject SHOULD
return a PathErr with an error code "Routing Error" and error value
"Bad EXPLICT_ROUTE object" with the EXPLICIT_ROUTE object included
as defined in [RSVP-RO] Section 3.3.
Once a node properly parsed the Sub-TLV, the node applies the
selected regeneration pool (at that hop) for the LSP. In addition,
the node SHOULD report compliance by adding a RRO_HOP_ATTRIBUTE
subobject with the WSON Processing HOP Attribute TLV (and its sub-
TLVs) which describes the attributes to be reported.
4.4. Wavelength Selection Sub-TLV
Routing + Distributed Wavelength Assignment (R+DWA) is one of the
options defined by the [RFC6163]. The output from the routing
function will be a path but the wavelength will be selected on a
hop-by-hop basis.
Under this hypothesis, the node initiating the signaling process
needs to declare its own wavelength availability (through a
label_set object). Each intermediate node may delete some labels due
to connectivity constraints or its own assignment policy. At the
end, the destination node has to make the final decision on the
wavelength assignment among the ones received through the signaling
process.
As discussed in [HZang00], a number of different wavelength
assignment algorithms may be employed. In addition as discussed in
[RFC6163] the wavelength assignment can be either for a
unidirectional lightpath or for a bidirectional lightpath
constrained to use the same lambda in both directions.
In order to indicate wavelength assignment directionality and
wavelength assignment method, a new Wavelength Selection, or
WavelengthSelection, sub-TLV is defined to be carried in the WSON
Bernstein et al. Expires November 2015 [Page 9]
Internet-Draft WSON Signaling Extensions July 2014
Processing HOP Attribute TLV defined in Section 4.2 of this draft.
The type value of the Sub-TLV is:
Type Sub-TLV Name
2(TDA) <WavelengthSelection>
The WavlengthSelection sub-TLV value field is defined as:
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
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
|W| WA Method | Reserved |
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
Where:
W (1 bit): 0 denotes requiring the same wavelength in both
directions, 1 denotes that different wavelengths on both directions
are allowed.
Wavelength Assignment (WA) Method (7 bits):
0 - unspecified (any); This does not constrain the WA method used by
a specific node.
1 - First-Fit. All the wavelengths are numbered and this WA method
chooses the available wavelength with the lowest index.
2 - Random. This WA method chooses an available wavelength randomly.
3 - Least-Loaded (multi-fiber). This WA method selects the
wavelength that has the largest residual capacity on the most loaded
link along the route. This method is used in multi-fiber networks.
If used in single-fiber networks, it is equivalent to the FF WA
method.
4- 127: Unassigned.
The processing rules of this TLV are as follows:
If a receiving node does not support the attribute(s), its behaviors
are specified below:
Bernstein et al. Expires November 2015 [Page 10]
Internet-Draft WSON Signaling Extensions July 2014
- W bit not supported: a PathErr MUST be generated with the Error
Code "Routing Problem" (24) with error sub-code "Unsupported
WavelengthSelection Symmetry value" (value to be assigned by IANA,
suggested value: 107).
- WA method not supported: a PathErr MUST be generated with the
Error Code "Routing Problem" (24) with error sub-code "unsupported
Wavelength Assignment value" (value to be assigned by IANA,
suggested value: 108).
This sub-TLV is constructed by an ingress node and the processing is
applied to all nodes (transit and egress) whose R bit is set in the
ERO HOP ATTRIBUTE subobject according to [RSVP-RO]. When the R bit
is set, a node MUST examine the WavelengthSelection sub-TLV present
in the subobject following the rule described in [RFC5420].
If a node processing an ERO HOP ATTRIBUTE subobject with WSON
Processing HOP Attributes TLV (which may include the
WavelengthSelection sub-TLVs) longer than the ERO subobject SHOULD
return a PathErr with an error code "Routing Error" and error value
"Bad EXPLICT_ROUTE object" with the EXPLICIT_ROUTE object included
as defined in [RSVP-RO] Section 3.3.
Once a node properly parsed the Sub-TLV, the node applies wavelength
assignment method (at that hop) for the LSP. In addition, the node
SHOULD report compliance by adding a RRO_HOP_ATTRIBUTE subobject
with the WSON Processing HOP Attribute TLV (and its sub-TLVs) which
describes the attributes to be reported.
5. Security Considerations
This document is builds on the mechanisms defined in [RFC3473], and
only differs in specific information communicated. As such, this
document introduces no new security considerations to the existing
GMPLS signaling protocols. See [RFC3473], for details of the
supported security measures. Additionally, [RFC5920] provides an
overview of security vulnerabilities and protection mechanisms for
the GMPLS control plane.
