All Rights Reserved © Alcatel-Lucent 2009, XXXXX 20 | GMPLS for Hybrid Optical Networking | May 2009 Summary Hybrid optical Networks must deal dynamically with 3R resources and optical parameters thereby integrating 2 layer information in one control plane Control plane concepts enforcing administrative boundaries are suitable for multi-vendor/multi-domain networks but are not cost efficiently address regeneration issues in single-vendor hybrid optical networks. Experience in deployed networks confirm that control plane performance is not critical.
