Introduction Generalised Multiprotocol Label Switched (GMPLS) is widely used in Wavelength Switched Optical Network (WSON) to support the optical circuits set-up through the signalling between Core Nodes and Edge Nodes. This extension addresses the use cases described by [RFC7698] Ch.3.3 and supports the information, needed in Spectrum Switched Optical Network (SSON), to signal a Media Channel and the associated carriers set request. The new set of parameters is related to the Media Channel and the carrier(s) routed with it and keep the backward compatibility with the WSON signalling. In particular this memo wants do address the use cases where the SSON LSP (the Media Channel in RFC7698) carries multiple carrier (OTSi) containing same Payload. The set of the carriers can be seen as single Logical circuit. This Galimberti, et al. Expires April 25, 2019 [Page 2] Internet-Drafdraft-ggalimbe-ccamp-flexigrid-carrier-label-0 October 2018 memo can be considered as the extension of [RFC7792]. The contents and the parameters reflect the experimental activity on IP over SSON recently done by some vendors and research consortia. Figure 1 shows how the multiple carrier are mapped into a Media Channel. A set of parameters must be shared on the UNI to allow the GMPLS to do the proper routing and Spectrum Assignment and decide the carrier position. +------+ +------+ _________ +------+ +------+ | E.N. | | C.N. | / /\ | C.N. | | E.N. | | OTS1| ----- | || | || | ----- |OTS1 | ==| OTS2| ----- | || Media | || | ----- |OTS2 |== ==| OTS3| ----- | || Channel| || | ----- |OTS3 |== | OTS4| ----- | || | || | ----- |OTS4 | | | | ROADM| \________\/ | ROADM| | | +------+ +------+ +------+ +------+ ^ ^ ^ ^ | | | | +---UNI---+ +---UNI---+ E.N. = Edge Node - UNI Client C.N. = Core Node - UNI Network ROADM = Lambda/Spectrum switch Media Channel = the optical circuit OTSi = Carriers belonging to the same Network Media Channel (or Super Channel) UNI = Signalig interface Figure 1: Multi carrier LSP 2. Client interface parameters The Edge Node interface can have one or multiple carriers (OTSi). All the carrier have the same characteristics and are provisionable in terms of: Number of subcarriers: This parameter indicates the number of subcarriers available for the super-channel in case the Transceiver can support multiple carrier circuits. Central frequency (see G.694.1 Table 1): This parameter indicates the Central frequency value that Ss and Rs will be set to work (in THz). See the details in Section 6/ Galimberti, et al. Expires April 25, 2019 [Page 3] Internet-Drafdraft-ggalimbe-ccamp-flexigrid-carrier-label-0 October 2018 G.694.1 or based on "n" value explanation and the following "k" values definition in case of multicarrier transceivers. Central frequency granularity: This parameter indicates the Central frequency granularity supported by the transceiver, this value is combined with k and n value to calculate the central frequency of the carrier or sub- carriers. Minimum channel spacing: This is the minimum nominal difference in frequency (in GHz) between two adjacent channels (or carriers) depending on the Transceiver characteristics. Bit rate / Baud rate of optical tributary signals: Optical Tributary Signal bit (for NRZ signals) rate or Symbol (for Multiple bit per symbol) rate . FEC Coding: This parameter indicate what Forward Error Correction (FEC) code is used at Ss and Rs (R/W) (not mentioned in G.698.2). . Wavelength Range (see G.694.1): [ITU.G694.1] This parameter indicate minimum and maximum wavelength spectrum in a definite wavelength Band (L, C and S). Modulation format: This parameter indicates the list of supported Modulation Formats and the provisioned Modulation Format.. Inter carrier skew: This parameter indicates, in case of multi-carrier transceivers the maximum skew between the sub-carriers supported by the transceiver. Laser Output power: This parameter provisions the Transceiver Output power, it can be either a setting and measured value. receiver input power: This parameter provisions the Min and MAX input pover suppotred by the Transceiver, i.e. Receiver Sensitivity. The above parameters are related to the Edge Node Transceiver and are used by the Core Network GMPLS in order to calculate the optical feasibility and the spectrum allocation. The parameters can be shared between the Client and the Network via LMP or provisioned to the Network by an EMS or an operator OSS. Galimberti, et al.

Use Cases The use cases are described in draft-ietf-ccamp-dwdm-if-mng-ctrl-fwk and [RFC7698] 4. Signalling Extensions Some of the above parameters can be applied to RFC7792 (SENDER_TSPEC/ FLOWSPEC). The above parameters could be applied to [RFC4208] scenarios but they are valid also in case of non UNI scenarios. The [RFC6205] parameters remain valid. 4.1. New LSP set-up parameters When the E.N. wants to request to the C.N. a new circuit set-up request or the GMPLS wants to signal in the SSON network the Optical Interface characteristics the following parameters will be provided to the C.N.: Number of available subcarriers (c): This parameter is an integer and identifies the number of Client ports connected to the Core ports available to suport the requested circuit Total bandwidth request: e.g. 200Gb, 400Gb, 1Tb - it is the bandwidth (payload) to be carried by the multiple carrier circuit Policy (strict/loose): Strict/loose referred to B/W and subcarrier number. This is to give some flexibility to the GMPLS in order to commit client request. Subcarrier bandwidth tunability: (optional) e.g. 34Ghz, 48GHz. Galimberti, et al.

Expires April 25, 2019 [Page 6] Internet-Drafdraft-ggalimbe-ccamp-flexigrid-carrier-label-0 October 2018 Note: bandwidth unit is defined in accordance to RFC 3471 chap. 3.1.2 Bandwith Encoding specification. Bandwidth higher than 40Gb/s values must be defined (e.g. 100Gb/s, 150Gb/s 400Gb/s, etc.) TLV Usage: Head UNI-C PATH: requested traffic constraints, the Head UNI-N node must satisfy when reserving the optical resources and defining the carriers configuration The TLV can be omitted: no traffic constraints is defined (resources allocated by UNI-N based on a local policy) 4.2. Extension to LSP set-up reservation Once the GMPLS has calculated the Media Channel path, the Spectrum Allocation, the Sub-carrier number and frequency, the modulation format, the FEC and the Transmit power, sends back to the E.N. the path set-up confirmation providing the values of the calculated paramenters: Media Channel: (Grid, C.S., Identifier m and n). as indicated in RFC7699 Section 4.1 Modulation format: This parameter indicates the Modulation Formats to be set in the Transceivers. FEC Coding: This parameter indicate what Forward Error Correction (FEC) code must be used by the Transceivers (not mentioned in G.698). . Bit rate / Baud rate of optical tributary signals: Optical tributary signal bit (for NRZ signals) rate or Symbol (for Multiple bit per symbol) rate. List of subcarriers: This parameter indicates the subcarriers to be used for the super- channel in case the Transceiver can support multiple carrier Circuits. Central frequency granularity (J): This parameter indicates the Central frequency granularity supported by the transceiver, this value is combined with K and n value to calculate the central frequency on the carrier or sub- carriers.

RSVP Protocol Extensions considerations The additional information described in the draft, is related to the Media Channel supported traffic. It could be encoded in the SENDER_TSPEC/FLOW_SPEC objects by extending the SSON_SENDER_TSPEC/ SSON_FLOW_SPEC defined in RFC 7792 (or defining a new C-Type) with an optional TLV list or it could be encoded in a newly defined entry (new OBJECT or new LSP_ATTRIBUTES OBJECT TLV) This solution is consistent with other technology specific extensions (e.g. SDH), but requires the explicit handling of the extensions by all nodes. Galimberti, et al. Expires April 25, 2019 [Page 12] Internet-Drafdraft-ggalimbe-ccamp-flexigrid-carrier-label-0 October 2018 Beside this, some of the additional information defined is local to the head/tail UNI link (e.g. the carrier/port association), while the traffic spec info should be valid end-to-end. 5. Security Considerations GMPLS message security uses IPsec, as described in xxxx. This document only defines new UNI objects that are carried in existing UNI messages, similar to the UNI objects in xxx. This document does not introduce new security considerations. 6.
