  1. Revised Definition of The GMPLS Switching Capability and Type Fieldsdraft-berger-ccamp-swcaps-update-02 Lou Berger lberger@labn.net Julien Meuric julien.meuric@orange.com CCAMP - 84th IETF

  2. Changes • -swcaps-update-00 • Presented at last IETF • -swcaps-update-01 • Included presented planned changes • Rename: ILH  ITH • Intra-Layer Hierarchy  Intra-Technology Hierarchy • -swcaps-update-02 • Removed ITH • ITH specific not as mature as rest of draft CCAMP - 84th IETF

  3. Current Draft Scope • Simplifies definition of Switching Capability • Only indicates switching technology • Removes existing overload – no intra-technology significance • Different SCSI formats MUST use different values • Removes existing SCSI format ambiguity • Deprecate intra-layer / unused PSC values • PSC 24 • Keep values used in routing and signaling aligned • No change: keep using IANA Switching Type registry • No substantive change for signaling • Matches discussion on list and last meeting • Aligned with current OTN drafts CCAMP - 84th IETF

  4. Considered Alternatives • Goal: Address two issues for future definitions (i.e., no impact to existing RFC-based implementations, apart from PSC-N that appear to be unused) • Current representation of (1) switching types, (2) technologies, and (3) multiplexing is inconsistent • Current definition of Switching Capability (and types) is overloaded • Alternatives considered – two extremes: • Assign Switching Type per potential SCSI format • i.e., at least one Switching Type per switching technology • different SC specific information field formats imply different Types • Have Switching Type represent (1), (2) and (3) • i.e., for a given technology, as many Types as multiplexing levels(ala PSC-N) Selected Approach CCAMP - 84th IETF

  5. Next steps • Poll to be WG document CCAMP - 84th IETF
