Framework and Data Model for OTN Network Slicing
draft-zheng-ccamp-yang-otn-slicing-02
Abstract
The requirement of slicing network resources with desired quality of
service is emerging at every network technology, including the
Optical Transport Networks (OTN). As a part of the transport
network, OTN can provide hard pipes with guaranteed data isolation
and deterministic low latency, which are highly demanded in the
Service Level Agreement (SLA).
This document describes a framework for OTN network slicing and a
YANG data model augmentation of the OTN topology model. Additional
YANG data model augmentations will be defined in a future version of
this draft.

Internet-Draft Framework and YANG of OTN Slices July 2021
1. Introduction
The requirement of slicing network resources with desired quality of
service is emerging at every network technology, including the
Optical Transport Networks (OTN). As a part of the transport
network, OTN can provide hard pipes with guaranteed data isolation
and deterministic low latency, which are highly demanded in the
Service Level Agreement (SLA). This document describes a framework
for OTN network slicing and a YANG data model augmentation of the OTN
topology model. Additional YANG data model augmentations will be
defined in a future version of this draft.
1.1. Definition of OTN Slice
An OTN slice is an OTN virtual network topology connecting a number
of OTN endpoints using a set of shared or dedicated OTN network
resources to satisfy specific service level objectives (SLOs).
An OTN slice is a technology-specific realization of an IETF network
slice [I-D.ietf-teas-ietf-network-slices] in the OTN domain, with the
capability of configuring slice resources in the term of OTN
technologies. Therefore, all the terms and definitions concerning
network slicing as defined in [I-D.ietf-teas-ietf-network-slices]
apply to OTN slicing.
An OTN slice can span multiple OTN administrative domains,
encompassing access links, intra-domain paths, and inter-domain
links. An OTN slice may include multiple endpoints, each associated
with a set of physical or logical resources, e.g. optical port or
time slots, at the termination point (TP) of an access link or inter-
domain link at an OTN provider edge (PE) equipment.
An end-to-end OTN slice may be composed of multiple OTN segment
slices in a hierarchical or sequential (or stitched) combination.
Figure 1 illustrates the scope of OTN slices in multi-domain
environment.

Figure 1: OTN Slice
OTN slices may be pre-configured by the management plane and
presented to the customer via the northbound interface (NBI), or be
dynamically provisioned by a higher layer slice controller, e.g. an
IETF network slice controller (IETF NSC) through the NBI. The OTN
slice is provided by a service provider to a customer to be used as
though it was part of the customer's own networks.
2. Use Cases for OTN Network Slicing
2.1. Leased Line Services with OTN
For end business customers (like OTT or enterprises), leased lines
have the advantage of providing high-speed connections with low
costs. On the other hand, the traffic control of leased lines is
very challenging due to rapid changes in service demands. Carriers
are recommended to provide network-level slicing capabilities to meet
this demand. Based on such capabilities, private network users have
full control over the sliced resources which have been allocated to
them and which could be used to support their leased lines, when
needed. Users may formulate policies based on the demand for
services and time to schedule the resources from the entire network's
perspective flexibly. For example, the bandwidth between any two
points may be established or released based on the time or monitored
traffic characteristics. The routing and bandwidth may be adjusted
Zheng, et al. Expires January 13, 2022 [Page 4]
Internet-Draft Framework and YANG of OTN Slices July 2021
at a specific time interval to maximize network resource utilization
efficiency.
2.2. Co-construction and Sharing
Co-construction and sharing of a network are becoming a popular means
among service providers to reduce networking building CAPEX. For Co-
construction and sharing case, there are typically multiple co-
founders for the same network. For example, one founder may provide
optical fibres and another founder may provide OTN equipment, while
each occupies a certain percentage of the usage rights of the network
resources. In this scenario, the network O&M is performed by a
certain founder in each region, where the same founder usually
deploys an independent management and control system. The other
founders of the network use each other's management and control
system to provision services remotely. In this scenario, different
founders' network resources need to be automatically (associated)
divided, isolated, and visualized. All founders may share or have
independent O&M capabilities, and should be able to perform service-
level provisioning in their respective slices.
2.3. Wholesale of optical resources
In the optical resource wholesale market, smaller, local carriers and
wireless carriers may rent resources from larger carriers, or
infrastructure carriers instead of building their networks.
Likewise, international carriers may rent resources from respective
local carriers and local carriers may lease their owned networks to
each other to achieve better network utilization efficiency. From
the perspective of a resource provider, it is crucial that a network
slice is timely configured to meet traffic matrix requirements
requested by its tenants. The support for multi-tenancy within the
resource provider's network demands that the network slices are
qualitatively isolated from each other to meet the requirements for
transparency, non-interference, and security. Typically, a resource
purchaser expects to use the leased network resources flexibly, just
like they are self-constructed. Therefore, the purchaser is not only
provided with a network slice, but also the full set of
functionalities for operating and maintaining the network slice. The
purchaser also expects to, flexibly and independently, schedule and
maintain physical resources to support their own end-to-end
automation using both leased and self-constructed network resources.
2.4. Vertical dedicated network with OTN
Vertical industry slicing is an emerging category of network slicing
due to the high demand for private high-speed network interconnects
for industrial applications. In this scenario, the biggest challenge
Zheng, et al. Expires January 13, 2022 [Page 5]
Internet-Draft Framework and YANG of OTN Slices July 2021
is to implement differentiated optical network slices based on the
requirements from different industries. For example, in the
financial industry, to support high-frequency transactions, the slice
must ensure to provide the minimum latency along with the mechanism
for latency management. For the healthcare industry, online
diagnosis network and software capabilities to ensure the delivery of
HD video without frame loss. For bulk data migration in data
centers, the network needs to support on-demand, large-bandwidth
allocation. In each of the aforementioned vertical industry
scenarios, the bandwidth shall be adjusted as required to ensure
flexible and efficient network resource usage.
2.5. End-to-end network slicing
In an end-to-end network slicing scenario such as 5G network slicing
[TS.28.530-3GPP], an IETF network slice
[I-D.ietf-teas-ietf-network-slices] provides the required
connectivity between other different segments of an end-to-end
network slice, such as the Radio Access Network (RAN) and the Core
Network (CN) segments, with a specific performance commitment. An
IETF network slice could be composed of network slices from multiple
technological and administrative domains. An IETF network slice can
be realized by using or combining multiple underlying OTN slices with
OTN resources, e.g. ODU time slots or ODU containers, to achieve
end-to-end slicing across the transport domain.
3. Framework for OTN slicing
OTN slices may be abstracted differently depending on the requirement
contained in the configuration provided by the slice customer.
Whereas the customer requests an OTN slice to provide connectivities
between specified endpoints, an OTN slice can be abstracted as a set
of endpoint-to-endpoint links, with each link formed by an end-to-end
tunnel across the underlying OTN networks. The resources associated
with each link of the slice is reserved and commissioned in the
underlying physical network upon the completion of configuring the
OTN slice and all the links are active.
An OTN slice can also be abstracted as an abstract topology when the
customer requests the slice to share resources between multiple
endpoints and to use the resources on demand. The abstract topology
may consist of virtual nodes and virtual links, whose associated
resources are reserved but not commissioned across the underlying OTN
networks. The customer can later commission resources within the
slice dynamically using the NBI provided by the service provider. An
OTN slice could use abstract topology to connect endpoints with
shared resources to optimize the resource utilization, and
connections can be activated within the slice as needed.
Zheng, et al. Expires January 13, 2022 [Page 6]
Internet-Draft Framework and YANG of OTN Slices July 2021
It is worth noting that those means to abstract an OTN slice are
similar to the Virtual Network (VN) abstraction defined for higher-
level interfaces in [RFC8453], in which context a connectivity-based
slice corresponds to Type 1 VN and a resource-based slice corresponds
to Type 2 VN, respectively.
A particular resource in an OTN network, such as a port or link, may
be sliced with one of the two granularity levels:
o Link-based slicing, in which a link and its associated link
termination points (LTPs) are dedicatedly allocated to a
particular OTN slice.
o Tributary-slot based slicing, in which multiple OTN slices share
the same link by allocating different OTN tributary slots in
different granularities.
Furthermore, an OTN switch is typically fully non-blockable switching
at the lowest ODU container granularity, it is desirable to specify
just the total number of ODU containers in the lowest granularity
(e.g. ODU0), when configuring tributary-slot based slicing on links
and ports internal to an OTN network. In multi-domain OTN network
scenarios where separate OTN slices are created on each of the OTN
networks and are stitched at inter-domain OTN links, it is necessary
to specify matching tributary slots at the endpoints of the inter-
domain links. In some real network scenarios, OTN network resources
including tributary slots are managed explicitly by network operators
for network maintenance considerations. Therefore an OTN slice
controller shall support configuring an OTN slice with both options.
An OTN slice controller (OTN-SC) is a logical function responsible
for the life-cycle management of OTN slices instantiated within the
corresponding OTN network domains. The OTN-SC provides technology-
specific interfaces at its northbound (OTN-SC NBI) to allow a higher-
layer slice controller, such as an IETF network slice controller
(NSC), or an orchestrator, to request OTN slices with OTN-specific
requirements. The OTN-SC interfaces at the southbound using the
MDSC-to-PNC interface (MPI) with a Physical Network Controller (PNC)
or Multi-Domain Service Orchestrator (MDSC), as defined in the ACTN
control framework [RFC8453]. The logical function within the OTN-SC
is responsible for translating the OTN slice requests into concrete
slice realization which can be understood and provisioned at the
southbound by the PNC or MDSC.
When realizing OTN slices, the OTN-SC may translate a connectivity-
based OTN slice into a set of end-to-end tunnels using the Traffic-
engineering(TE) tunnel interface defined in [I-D.ietf-teas-yang-te].
For a resource-based OTN slice, the OTN-SC may translate the abstract

Internet-Draft Framework and YANG of OTN Slices July 2021
topology representing the slice into a colored graph on an abstract
TE topology using the TE topology interface defined in [RFC8795].
The OTN-SC NBI is technology-specific, while the IETF NSC-NBI is
technology- agnostic. An IETF NSC may translate its customer's
technology-agnostic slice request into an OTN slice request and
utilize the OTN-SC NBI to realize the IETF network slice.
Alternatively, the IETF NSC may translate the slicing request into
tunnel or topology configuration commands and communicate directly
with the underlying PNC or MDSC to provision the IETF network slice.
Figure 2 illustrates the OTN slicing control hierarchy and the
positioning of the OTN slicing interfaces.

Figure 2: Positioning of OTN Slicing Interfaces
OTN-SC functionalities may be recursive such that a higher-level OTN-
SC may designate the creation of OTN slices to a lower-level OTN-SC
in a recursive manner. This scenario may apply to the creation of
OTN slices in multi-domain OTN networks, where multiple domain-wide
OTN slices provisioned by lower-layer OTN-SCs are stitched to support
a multi-domain OTN slice provisioned by the higher-level OTN-SC.
Zheng, et al. Expires January 13, 2022 [Page 8]
Internet-Draft Framework and YANG of OTN Slices July 2021
Alternatively, the OTN-SC may interface with an MDSC, which in turn
interfaces with multiple PNCs through the MPI to realize OTN slices
in multi-domain OTN networks without OTN-SC recursion. Figure 3
illustrates both options for OTN slicing in multi-domain.

+--------+ +--------+ +--------+ +--------+
Multi-domain Option 1 Multi-domain Option 2
Figure 3: OTN-SC for multi-domain
OTN-SC functionalities are logically independent and may be deployed
in different combinations to cater to the realization needs. In
reference with the ACTN control framework [RFC8453], an OTN-SC may be
deployed - as an independent network function; - together with a
Physical Network Controller (PNC) for single-domain or with a Multi-
Domain Service Orchestrator (MDSC)for multi-domain; - together with a
higher-level network slice controller to support end-to-end network
slicing;

4.1.1. MPI YANG Model Overview
For the configuration of connectivity-based OTN slices, existing
models such as the TE tunnel interface [I-D.ietf-teas-yang-te] may be
used and no addition is needed. This model is addressing the case
for configuring resource-based OTN slices, where the model permits to
reserve resources exploiting the common knowledge of an underlying
virtual topology between the OTN-SC and the subtended network
controller (MDSC or PNC). The slice is configured by marking
corresponding link resources on the TE topology received from the
underlying MDSC or PNC with a slice identifier and OTN-specific
resource requirements, e.g. the number of ODU time slots or the type/
number of ODU containers. The MDSC or PNC, based on the marked
resources by the OTN-SC, will update the underlying TE topology with

5. Manageability Considerations
To ensure the security and controllability of physical resource
isolation, slice-based independent operation and management are
required to achieve management isolation. Each optical slice
typically requires dedicated accounts, permissions, and resources for
independent access and O&M. This mechanism is to guarantee the
information isolation among slice tenants and to avoid resource
conflicts. The access to slice management functions will only be
permitted after successful security checks.
