Hi Gyan,

 

You39re right, this draft mainly aims to address scenarios where the nodes have 
MTN or optical channel information and are not IP routers. Transit nodes of the 
underlay connection only work in MTN or optical channel layer and are not 
IPaware.

 

The current version have some content in IANA section for end.xu and end.bxc. 
Further CSID can be studied in the future.



Thanks.

 

Best regards,

Liuyan

My question at the mike about draft-dong-spring-srv6-inter-layer-programmingHi 
Liuyan


Thank you for the explanation.  


The inter layer programming solution makes sense describing the POI and MTN use 
cases in section 4.  


So today with existing POI or MTN implementations with a hierarchical 
controller the IP layer is provisioned and CS-SR provides the guaranteed 
bandwidth per channel path protection and optical controller provisions the 
optical path independently of the IP controller via hierarchical top level 
controller.  However today there is no direct communication between the IP 
controller and the optical controller.  However it is not needed. AFAIK with 
POI the router with coherent pluggable or gray optics with external transponder 
with IP+Optical integration  the router is a DWDM switch carrying the 96 
wavelengths / channels with POI so the hierarchical controller is able to 
provide the underlay path across any legacy OTN nodes necessary steering on the 
photonics layer optical path to be provisioned.  So we are able to provide the 
same outcome of steering across the underlay optical nodes that are not visible 
at the IP layer.  


Also with POI with RON “routed optical networking” the routers are IP and DWDM 
or ODUK channel  aware and so can build the path using Adj-SID since the 
underlay optical nodes are IP routers as well and not hidden and are part of 
the IGP topology.


So now with this draft the SRv6 endpoint behaviors end.xu and end.bxc the IP 
controller now has visibility into the OTN optical underlay topology dwdm nodes 
directly and the IP controller can handoff the optical provisioning to optical 
controller to provision the OTN steered path via the new endpoint behaviors.


I would think this would be relevant to POI or MTN with legacy OTN is present 
where the nodes are not IP routers that are DWDM channel aware with routed 
optical networking where the router is a DWDM switch in which case this draft I 
think would not be relevant.


For IANA section can you add for end.xu and end.bxc can you add Next CSID as 
well.


Kind Regards

Hi Gyan,



Thank you for your information. 



In the traditional network without SID extension, optical network is invisible 
to IP network. Thus for the IP paths with the same source and destination, it 
is difficult to differentiate them and flexibly choose the different underlay 
optical paths. The optical controller will designate one channel for forwarding.



Our SID extension solution allows for information exchange between the IP 
controller and the optical controller (such as through one upper controller). 
The optical paths can be directly selected and routed through SID even for the 
IP paths with the same source and destination.



In addition, for multiple IP SRv6 paths, assuming that the optical layer 
utilizes the same ODUk channel, the optical path can be configured with the 
same SID, which simplifies the configuration.



Best regards,

Liuyan

Thanks for your interest in this topic, and the introduction of the POI work in 
CCAMP is helpful.

Hi Jie


 


I have a draft in CCAMP on POI IP + Optical convergence where we are focused on 
operator use cases for coherent pluggable optics that is being developed by 
lead author Oscar Dios (Teas chair).  



 


Does this describe what you are trying to do with SRv6 inter layer programming 
does seem like POI IP + Optical convergence.  


 


[Jie] As described in this draft, POI is one use case of SRv6 inter-layer 
programming. 



 


This work uses the CS-SR Circuit Style SR for provisioning being progressed by 
Christian Schmutzer which can be over SR-MPLS or SRv6.  



 



https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-schmutzer-spring-cs-sr-policy/ 


[Jie] To my understanding CS-SR is a another story, which is about using SR 
based packet network to emulate circuit-style connections. 



 Gyan>  CS-SR is used for provisioning both TDM CES Circuit Emulated services 
as well as MetroE ethernet 100G/400G/800G per wavelength with ROADM for shared 
SPAN or w/o ROADM for P2P SPAN.  The goal of CS-SR is to provide guaranteed 
bandwidth with  path protection per wavelength for POI both pluggable and non 
pluggable gray optics with external transponder.  The POI integration is done 
holistically with a hierarchical controller that talks to both IP controller 
(PCE) IP layer and Optical controller optical layer so that SR can provide the 
protection failover scheme and optical layer can provide the restoration.  I 
believe there maybe some overlap in vendor implementations of CS-SR with 
hierarchical controllers and the goals of SRv6 Inter Layer programming.  
However if the goal of inter layer programming in POI context to provision the 
optical layer with the IP controller using new SRv6 programming End.XU and 
End.BXC endpoint behaviors then their is no overlap as this would be an 
alternative solution to provisioning the optical layer.  This would provide 
simplicity and as well now would not necessarily need a hierarchical controller 
to talk both IP and Optical layers to provision them both separately. With this 
solution the IP controller with the new SRv6 endpoint behaviors can now 
provision both the IP and Optical layers.  Or the IP controller via the new 
endpoint behaviors could talk directly to the optical controller for 
provisioning.  If that maybe the case could you provide more details as to how 
the optical layer would be provisioned.



     






 



There are two new very powerful use cases which are exposed with POI when IP 
and Optical layers are being converged and that is that now with POI we can p2p 
DWDM links between router nodes that are now acting as DWDM  switch as well 
with  Routed Optical Networking termed  "RON" with IP and Optical convergence. 
These use cases do not exist with legacy Optical OTN with gray optics and 
external transponders which is one of the major benefits of POI IP+Optical 
convergence



 


https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/draft-poidt-ccamp-actn-poi-pluggable-usecases-gaps-01



 


With this work we have tremendous scale as now each p2p link with coherent 
pluggable optics and now having access to all the layers with IP+Optical with a 
Hierarchial controller superset controller talking to the IP and  Optical 
layers for provisioning as well as can have very long spans with tweaking of 
the alien wavelengths and amplitude modulation schemes. 



 


With POI a p2p link with each router being a DWDM switch each wavelength could 
be 100G/400G/800G x 96 wavelengths so a single SMF fiber can now have up to 
100G/400G/800G x 96 scalable bandwidth on demand which is applicable  to MSDC 
DCI interconnects and Converged Core transport networks. 


 


[Jie] Thanks for sharing the use cases of IP+optical pluggable, I will take a 
further look at it. I agree this draft could be applicable to the use  cases of 
pluggable, and it can also be applied to other IP and Optical integration cases 
without pluggable. 


 


 


Best regards,


Jie


 






 This exists today and is supported by a few vendors but now we are trying to 
standardize the implementation use cases with coherent pluggable optics with 
this CCAMP draft.

4. Network  Scenarios
This section provides a set of packet over optical network scenarios, starting 
with the most common ones.¶


4.1. Scenario  A - High capacity point to point connection over dedicated 
direct fiber
As depicted in Figure  4, this scenario considers a point-to-point optical 
service over a short distance (e.g., up to 100 km) using dedicated fiber.¶


Note that there is no amplification and no protection in this scenario.¶

4.2. Scenario  B - High capacity point to point over shared fiber
This scenario extends Figure  4 by making more efficient use of the deployed 
fiber infrastructure.¶


As shown in Figure  5, this scenario considers a point-to-point optical service 
over a short distance (e.g., up to 100 km) using a physical optical network 
with DWDM filters and amplifiers. Several point-to-point connections can be 
multiplexed from the same packet devices.¶


Note that there is no protection in this scenario.¶
