13. s IP over WDM ICN M RC R&D Cooperations 2579 Conception Optimization and harmonization of the various techniques for wavelength-routing and IP-routing. Simplification and optimization of network-wide restoration mechanisms in WDM-networks with the inclusion of existing IP-routing mechanisms. A suitable network interface which embodies a powerful level-2 protocol (i.e. link level) between level-3 (IP) and level-1 protocols. Consideration of the properties of the application-related protocols e.g. multicast Implementation Realization of the key functionalities for IP over WDM. Testbed demonstration in Berlin.
