Resource Reservation protocol responsible for
dynamic end-end lightpath setup and release
hardware is emulated
A
delay element provides a configurable
delay on the ethernet links with a maximum
delay of 7.9ms
A
Incoming
connection requests enter any node,
which is then designated as the owner of that
connection
The
owner node runs the RWA, based on Shortest
Path routing and Least Loaded Wavelength
assignment, to find the working and protection paths
The
owner node first sets up the working path and
then reserves resources for the protection path
It initiates the Reservation procedure by sending a
LIGHTPATH_CREATE_TRY to the source node
Each
node in the path switches the ports of the
OXC, and forwards the message to the next node in
sequence.
In
case of a failure, the node sends a
LIGHTPATH_CREATE_FAIL to the previous node in
sequence and this message propagates all the way
back to the owner node.
In
case of a success on all the nodes in the path,
the destination node sends a SUCCESS message to
the source node
The
source node floods the SUCCESS message
Link
Management Protocol (LMP) runs
between adjacent nodes of every link
Each
node sends HELLO messages every
5 ms
Failure
is defined as the loss of 4
consecutive HELLO messages(20 ms)
Recovery
is defined as the reception of
100 consecutive HELLO messages(500 ms)
