Realizing packet-optical integration with SDN and OpenFlow 1.1 extensions
2012
2012 IEEE International Conference on Communications (ICC)
This paper discusses the benefits of applying software defined networking (SDN) to circuit based transport networks. It first establishes the need for SDN in the context of transport networks. This paper argues that the use of SDN in the transport layers could be the enabler for both packetoptical integration and improved transport network applications. Then, this paper proposes extensions to OpenFlow 1.1 to achieve control of switches in multi-technology transport layers. The approach
