Abstract
Recent progress in ITU-T Recommendation G.709 standardization has
introduced new ODU containers (ODU0, ODU4, ODU2e, ODU3e1, ODU3e2 and
ODUflex) and enhanced Optical Transport Networking (OTN) flexibility.
<Zhang> Expires January 2010 [Page 1]
draft-zhang-ccamp-gmpls-evolving-g709-02.txt July 2009
Several recent documents have proposed ways to modify GMPLS signaling
protocols to support these new OTN features.
It is important that a single solution is developed for use in GMPLS
signaling and routing protocols. This solution must support ODUk
multiplexing capabilities, address all of the new features, be
acceptable to all equipment vendors, and be extensible considering
continued OTN evolution.
This document describes the extensions to the Generalized Multi-
Protocol Label Switching (GMPLS) signaling to control the evolutive
Optical Transport Networks (OTN) addressing ODUk multiplexing and new
features including ODU0, ODU4, ODU2e, ODU3e1, ODU3e2 and ODUflex.

1. Introduction
Generalized Multi-Protocol Label Switching (GMPLS) [RFC3945] extends
MPLS to include Layer-2 Switching (L2SC), Time-Division Multiplex
(e.g., SONET/SDH, PDH, and ODU), Wavelength (OCh, Lambdas) Switching,
and Spatial Switching (e.g., incoming port or fiber to outgoing
port or fiber). [RFC3471] presents a functional description of the
extensions to Multi-Protocol Label Switching (MPLS) signaling
required to support Generalized MPLS. RSVP-TE-specific formats and
mechanisms and technology specific details are defined in [RFC3473].
With the evolution and deployment of G.709 technology, it is
necessary that appropriate enhanced control technology support be
provided for G.709. [RFC4328] describes the control technology
details that are specific to foundation G.709 Optical Transport
Networks (OTN), as specified in the ITU-T G.709 recommendation [ITUT-
G709], for ODUk deployments without multiplexing.
In addition to increasing need to support ODUk multiplexing, the
evolution of OTN has introduced additional containers and new
flexibility. For example, ODU0, ODU2e, ODU4 containers as described
in [G709-Amd3], ODU3e1, ODU3e2 described in [Gsup43], and ODUflex
being developed in [G709draft-v3].
In addition, the following issues require consideration:
- Support for ODUflex resizing capabilities, potentially hitless
(similar to LCAS, as defined in [VCAT-LCAS]), which is under
discussion in ITU-T.
- Support for Tributary Port Number. The Tributary Port Number
has to be negotiated on each link for flexible assignment of
tributary ports to tributary slots in case of LO-ODU over HO-ODU
(e.g., ODU2 into ODU3). Alternatively, the nodes of the network
are supposed to run AutoMSI mode.
Therefore, it is clear that [RFC4328] has to be updated or replaced
in order to support ODUk multiplexing, as well as other ODU
enhancements introduced by evolution of OTN standards.
This document updates RFC4328 extending the G.709 ODUk traffic
parameters and also presents a new OTN label format which is very
flexible and scalable.

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 Evolutive G.709 - Overview
The new features for the evolutive OTN are described in the separate
ITU-T documents, for example, ODU0, ODU2e,ODU4 are described in
[G709-Amd3] and ODU3e1, ODU3e2 are described in [Gsup43] and ODUflex
is being developed in [G709draft-v3].
[Editors note] The signal types described in [Gsup43] (i.e., ODU3e1,
ODU3e2) are non standard, should IETF address this kind of signals?
The new signal types of digital wrapper layer for the evolutive OTN
are listed as follows:
- Optical Channel Transport Unit (OTUk):
. OTU4
. OTU2e
. OTU3e1
. OTU3e2
- Optical Channel Data Unit (ODUk):
. ODU0
. ODU2e
. ODU3e1
. ODU3e2
. ODU4
. ODUflex
A new Tributary Slot (TS) granularity (i.e., 1.25 Gbps) is introduced
in [G709-Amd3]. At this point there are two TS granularities for the
original ODU1, ODU2, ODU3. The TS granularity at 2.5 Gbps is used on
legacy interfaces while the new 1.25 Gbps will be used for the new
interfaces.
New ITU-T documents not only introduce new signal types but also
define the new multiplexing hierarchy for the evolutive OTN. In
addition to the support of ODUk mapping into OTUk (k = 1, 2, 2e, 3,
3e1, 3e2, 4), G.709 and its amendments, support ODUk multiplexing.
For the evolutive OTN, the multiplexing of ODUj (j = 0, 1, 2, 2e, 3,
flex) into an ODUk (k > j) signal can be depicted as follows:
Zhang Expires January 2010 [Page 4]
draft-zhang-ccamp-gmpls-evolving-g709-02.txt July 2009
- ODU0 into ODU1 multiplexing (with 1,25Gbps TS granularity)
- ODU0, ODU1, ODUflex into ODU2 multiplexing (with 1.25Gbps
TS granularity)
- ODU1 into ODU2 multiplexing (with 2.5Gbps TS granularity)
- ODU0, ODU1, ODU2, ODU2e and ODUflex into ODU3 multiplexing
(with 1.25Gbps TS granularity)
- ODU1, ODU2 into ODU3 multiplexing (with 2.5Gbps TS granularity)
- ODU0, ODU1, ODU2, ODU2e, ODU3 and ODUflex into ODU4
multiplexing (with 1.25Gbps TS granularity)
- ODU2e into ODU3e1 multiplexing (with 2.5Gbps TS granularity)
- ODU2e into ODU3e2 multiplexing (with 1.25Gbps TS granularity)
[RFC4328] describes GMPLS signaling extensions to support the control
for G.709 Optical Transport Networks (OTN) [ITUT-G709].However,
[RFC4328] need 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 optional auto-MSI
mode which assumes that the Tributary Port Number 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 also presents a new OTN label format which is very
flexible and scalable.
[Editors note] There are several possibilities to include the
Tributary Port Number information in the signaling. Note that ITU-T
has not yet given a clear interpretation of the Tributary Port number
information in case of bidirectional paths, so the adoption of any
solution should be kept on hold until ITU-T provides an approved
definition.
3.1. Extensions for Traffic Parameters for the Evolutive G.709
The traffic parameters for G.709 are defined in [RFC4328] as follows:
Zhang Expires January 2010 [Page 5]
draft-zhang-ccamp-gmpls-evolving-g709-02.txt July 2009
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 | Reserved | NMC |
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
| NVC | Multiplier (MT) |
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
| Reserved |
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
[Editors note] NMC field in RFC4328 had the meaning to indicate how
many labels have to be expected. This information allows the
protocol to operate without specific knowledge of the signal type.
The same effect could be obtained either indicating the bit map
length or indicating the number of labels.
[Editors note] In the case ODUflex, Bit Rate and Bit Rate Tolerance
(BR, BRT) should be indicated in the Traffic Parameters. For example,
if an ODUflex connection with (2.5Gbps,+-20ppm) is requested, a HO
OPU2 TS is a maximum of 1.249 494 145 Gbps, so the ODUflex GDPS 2.5G
requires 3 TS in a HO OPU2. However, a HO OPU4 TS is a maximum of
1.301 711 855 Gbps, so the ODUflex requires only 2 TS in a HO OPU4.
Therefore, (BR, BRT) should be transmitted in the signaling End to
End, and it will be reflected in the Traffic Parameters in the next
version of this draft.
It is obvious that the Signal Type should be extended to cover the
new Signal Type introduced by the evolutive OTN. The new Signal Type
is extended as follows:
Value Type
----- ----
0 Not significant
1 ODU1 (i.e., 2.5 Gbps)
2 ODU2 (i.e., 10 Gbps)
3 ODU3 (i.e., 40 Gbps)
4 ODU4 (i.e., 100 Gbps)
5 Reserved (for future use)
6 OCh at 2.5 Gbps
7 OCh at 10 Gbps
8 OCh at 40 Gbps
9 OCh at 100 Gbps
10~19 Reserved (for future use)
Zhang Expires January 2010 [Page 6]
draft-zhang-ccamp-gmpls-evolving-g709-02.txt July 2009
20 ODU0 (i.e., 1.25 Gbps)
21~30 Reserved (for future use)
31 ODU2e (i.e., 10Gbps for FC1200 and GE LAN)
32 ODU3e1
33 ODU3e2
34 ODUflex (i.e., 1.25*N Gbps)
35~255 Reserved (for future use)
4. Generalized Label
[RFC3471] has defined the Generalized Label which extends the
traditional label by allowing the representation of not only labels
which travel in-band with associated data packets, but also labels
which identify time-slots, wavelengths, or space division multiplexed
positions. The format of the corresponding RSVP-TE Generalized Label
object is defined in the Section 2.3 of [RFC3473].
However, for different technologies, we usually need use specific
label rather than the Generalized Label. For example, the label
format described in [RFC4606] could be used for SDH/SONET, the label
format in [RFC4328] for G.709.
According to the ODUk label format defined in [RFC4328], it could be
updated to support new signal types defined in G.709 amendment 3 and
G.sup43 but would hardly be further enhanced to support possible new
signal types. Furthermore such label format can face big problems
related to scalability matters due to the high number of labels
needed. For example, when ODU3 is mapped into ODU4 with 1.25G
tributary slots, it will need thirty-two labels (32*4*8=1024 bits) to
be allocated for one ODU3 connection. If ODUflex into ODU4, it may
need up to eighty labels (80*4*8=2560 bits) to be allocated for one
ODUflex connection.
In this document, a new ODUk label format is defined. The new ODUk
label format is very flexible and scalable.
4.1. New definition of ODUk label
In order to be compatible with new types of ODU signal and new types
of tributary slot, the following new ODUk label format is defined:
Zhang Expires January 2010 [Page 7]
draft-zhang-ccamp-gmpls-evolving-g709-02.txt July 2009
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
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
| ODUj |OD(T)Uk| T | Reserved | Bit Map |
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
| ......... |
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
ODUj and OD(T)Uk (4 bits respectively): indicate that ODUj is
multiplexed into ODUk(k>j), or ODUj is mapped into OTUk (j=k).
ODUj field Signal type
---------- -----------
0 ODU0
1 ODU1
2 ODU2
3 ODU3
4 ODU4
5 ODU2e
6 ODUflex
7-15 Reserved (for future use)
OD(T)Uk field Signal type
---------- -----------
0 Reserved (for future use)
1 ODU1/OTU1
2 ODU2/OTU2
3 ODU3/OTU3
4 ODU4/OTU4
5 OTU2e
6 OTU3e1
7 OTU3e2
8-15 Reserved (for future use)
T (2 bits): indicates the type of tributary slot of OD(T)Uk.
Currently, two types of tributary slot are defined in [G.709], the
1.25Gbps tributary slot and the 2.5Gbps tributary slot.
Zhang Expires January 2010 [Page 8]
draft-zhang-ccamp-gmpls-evolving-g709-02.txt July 2009
T field TS type
------- -------
0 1.25Gbps TS granularity
1 2.5Gbps TS granularity
2-3 Reserved (for future use)
Bit Map (variable): indicates which tributary slots in ODUk that the
ODUj will be multiplexed into. The sequence of the Bit Map is
consistent with the sequence of the tributary slots in ODUk. Each bit
in the bit map represents the corresponding tributary slot in ODUk
with a value of 1 or 0 indicating whether the tributary slot will be
used by ODUj or not.
The size of the bit map equals to the total number of the tributary
slots of ODUk.
Padded bits are added behind the Bit Map to make the whole label a
multiple of four bytes if necessary. Padded bit MUST be set to 0 and
MUST be ignored.
In case of an ODUk mapped into OTUk, it's no need to indicate which
tributary slots will be used by ODUk, so the size of Bit Map is 0.
[Editors note] Tributary Port Number information to be inserted as
soon as clarification from ITU has been provided.
4.2. Examples
The following examples are given in order to illustrate the label
format described in the previous sections of this document.
(1) ODUk in OTUk mapping:
In such conditions, the downstream node along an LSP returns a label
indicating that the ODU1 (ODU2 or ODU3 or ODU4) is directly mapped
into the corresponding OTU1 (OTU2 or OTU3 or ODU4). The following
example label indicates an ODU1 mapped into OTU1 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

Zhang Expires January 2010 [Page 9]
draft-zhang-ccamp-gmpls-evolving-g709-02.txt July 2009
(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:
- 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

+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
This above label indicates an ODU0 multiplexed into the second
tributary slot of ODU2, wherein the type of the tributary slot is
1.25Gbps.
- 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

+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
This above label indicates an ODU1 multiplexed into the 2nd, 4th
tributary slot of ODU2, wherein the type of the tributary slot is
1.25Gbps.
- 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

+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
This above label indicates an ODU2 multiplexed into the 2nd, 3rd, 5th
and 7th tributary slot of ODU3, wherein the type of the tributary
slot is 2.5Gbps.
Zhang Expires January 2010 [Page 10]
draft-zhang-ccamp-gmpls-evolving-g709-02.txt July 2009
4.3. Label Distribution Procedure
This document does not change the existing label distribution
procedures [RFC4328] for GMPLS except that the new ODUk label should
be processed as follows.
When a node receives a generalized label request for setting up an
ODUj LSP from its upstream node, the node should generate an ODU
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 node. Note that these
labels can also be specified by the source node of the connection.
In case of ODUj to ODUk multiplexing, the node should 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 slots.
In case of ODUk to OTUk mapping, the node only needs to fill the ODUj
and the ODUk fields with corresponding values in the label. Other
bits are reserved and MUST be set to 0.
When receiving an ODU label from its downstream node, the node should
learn which ODU signal type is multiplexed or mapped into which ODU
signal type by analyzing the ODUj and the ODUk fields.
In case of ODUj to ODUk multiplexing, the node should firstly
determine the size of the Bit Map field according to the signal type
and the tributary slot type of ODUk, and then obtain which tributary
slots in ODUk are reserved by its downstream node according to the
position of the bits that are set to 1 in the Bit Map field, so that
the node can multiplex the ODUj into the reserved tributary slots of
ODUk after the LSP is established.
In case of ODUk to OTUk mapping, the size of Bit Map field is 0 and
no additional procedure is needed.
4.4. Backward Compatibility Considerations
4.4.1. Control Plane Backward Compatibility Considerations
Since the [RFC4328] has been deployed in the network for the nodes
which support the [ITUT-G709] (herein we call them "old nodes"), the
backward compatibility SHOULD be take into consideration when the new
nodes (i.e., nodes that support the [G709-Amd3] or [Gsup43] or
[G709draft-v3]) and the old nodes are interworking.
Zhang Expires January 2010 [Page 11]
draft-zhang-ccamp-gmpls-evolving-g709-02.txt July 2009
For backward compatibility consideration, the new node SHOULD have
the ability to generate and parse old labels.
- For the old node, it always generates and sends old label to its
upstream node, no matter the upstream node is new or old, as
described in [RFC4328].
- For the new node, it will generate and send old label if its
upstream node is an old one, and generate and send new label if
its upstream node is a new one.
One backward compatibility example is shown below:
Path Path Path Path
+-----+ ----> +-----+ ----> +-----+ ----> +-----+ ----> +-----+
| | | | | | | | | |
| A +-------+ B +-------+ C +-------+ D +-------+ E |
|(new)| |(new)| |(old)| |(old)| |(new)|
+-----+ <---- +-----+ <---- +-----+ <---- +-----+ <---- +-----+
Resv Resv Resv Resv
(new label) (old label) (old label) (old label)
As described above, for backward compatibility considerations, it is
necessary for a new node to know whether the neighbor node is new or
old.
One optional method is manual configuration. But it is recommended to
use LMP to discover the capability of the neighbor node automatically,
as described in [OTN-LMP].
When performing the HO ODU link capability negotiation:
o If the neighbor node only support the 2.5Gbps TS and only support
ODU1/ODU2/ODU3, the neighbor node should be treated as an old node.
o If the neighbor node can support the 1.25Gbps TS, or can support
other LO ODU types defined in [G709-Amd3] or [Gsup43] or
[G709draft-v3]), the neighbor node should be treated as new node.
o If the neighbor node returns a LinkSummaryNack message including
an ERROR_CODE indicating nonsupport of HO ODU link capability
negotiation, the neighbor node should be treated as an old node.
Zhang Expires January 2010 [Page 12]
draft-zhang-ccamp-gmpls-evolving-g709-02.txt July 2009
4.4.2. Data Plane Backward Compatibility Considerations
As described in chapter 3.1 and 4.1 of [OTN-LMP], the node supporting
1.25Gbps TS can interwork with the other nodes that supporting
2.5Gbps TS by combining Specific TSs together in data plane. The
control plane MUST support this TS combination.
Take the following figure as an example. Assume that there is an ODU2
link between node A and B, where node A only supports the 2.5Gbps TS
while node B supports the 1.25Gbps TS. In this case, the TS#i and
TS#i+4 (where i<=4) of node B are combined together. When creating an
ODU1 service in this ODU2 link, node B reserves the TS#i and TS#i+4
with the granularity of 1.25Gbps. But in the label sent from B to A,
it is indicated that the TS#i with the granularity of 2.5Gbps is
reserved.
Path
+----------+ ------------> +----------+
| TS1==|===========\--------+--TS1 |
| TS2==|=========\--\-------+--TS2 |
| TS3==|=======\--\--\------+--TS3 |
| TS4==|=====\--\--\--\-----+--TS4 |
| | \ \ \ \----+--TS5 |
| | \ \ \------+--TS6 |
| | \ \--------+--TS7 |
| | \----------+--TS8 |
+----------+ <------------ +----------+
node A Resv node B
In the contrary direction, when receiving a label from node A
indicating that the TS#i with the granularity of 2.5Gbps is reserved,
node B will reserved the TS#i and TS#i+4 with the granularity of
1.25Gbps in its control plane.
4.5. Collision management
[Editors note] This chapter should indicate the procedure in case of
collision between Tributary Port Numbers and/or Tributary Slots e.g.
two different LSP setups may choose a disjoint set of Tributary Slots
but they may request the same Tributary Port Number value (same MSI
in G.709 OPUk field).
In this case the first signaling should be successful and the second
one must fail.
