Backwards Compatibility (1) Node-A Node-B Node-C Link A-B: • G.709-v1 version compatible OTUk interface (2001) • Uses RFC 4328 for signaling • RFC 4203 & RFC 4201 based ISCD interpretation Link B-C: • G.709-v3 version compatible OTUk interface (12/09) • Uses ISCD + SCSI extensions as per our draft
Backwards compatibility(2) Note: • The GOALis to make TE-links with newer OTN capabilities compatible with CSPF in deployed networks • The ISCD format proposed in our draft allows Node-A • To interpret unReserved-BW, MaxLSP-BW and MinLSP-BW as per RFC4203 & RFC 4201 • Crank-back possibilities if muxing limitations exist • With or without Node-A going through software upgrade • Our BW model can be easily extended to support ODUflex • Requires ODUflex to become sub-TLV in SCSI • Addresses the case when ODUflex is not supported (the scenario you highlighted in your email)
Options to address Backwards Compatibility • If backwards compatibility needs to be addressed: • Use main ISCD as per RFC 4202/4203/4201 • Define a new sub-TLV for ODUflex in SCSI (BW in bytes/sec) • If backwards compatibility is not an issue: • Use main ISCD for ODUflexBW advertisement • No need for a separate sub-TLV for ODUflex • Either option can be easily accommodated in our BW Model • Option#1 is nice to have • We can address either based on agreement in IETF-WG
