RSVP-TE Extension for Additional Signal Types in G.709 Optical Transport Networks

Overview

RFC 7963, “RSVP-TE Extension for Additional Signal Types in G.709 Optical Transport Networks”, is an Informational document published in August 2016 by Z. Ali, A. Bonfanti, M. Hartley, F. Zhang. The canonical text is published by the RFC Editor.

Abstract

RFCs 4328 and 7139 provide signaling extensions in Resource ReserVation Protocol - Traffic Engineering (RSVP-TE) to control the full set of Optical Transport Network (OTN) features. However, these specifications do not cover the additional Optical channel Data Unit (ODU) containers defined in G.Sup43 (ODU1e, ODU3e1, and ODU3e2). This document defines new Signal Types for these additional containers.
