Dear authors,
Thanks for submitting your document on "Framework for GMPLS and
PCE Control of G.709 Optical Transport Networks".
We have reviewed the document and we are a little bit concerned to find
out that some significant items described in the document are not aligned with
what is defined in G.709.
Especially the mappings into ODU3e1 and ODU3e2 are
only defined in G.Sup43 which is not a standard.
In addition G.Sup43 does not define mappings of
ODU0, ODU1, ODU2 and ODUflex into ODU3e2. The only mappings that are defined
in G.Sup43 are 4x ODU2e.
[Fatai] Yes, you are right and we also
indicated in this draft that ODU3e1 and ODU3e2 are defined in G.Sup43. You know G.Sup is not
standard currently,so I think we have some options for this. (1)add a note to
explain that ODU3e1 and ODU3e2 are still non-standard explicitly (2) change the
title of this draft to "Framework for GMPLS and PCE Control of Optical
Transport Networks" (3) move ODU3e2 to an appendix.
In addition, I think we can cover ODU3e1
and ODU3e2 in this draft at this stage (i.e., individual draft), because they
are being developed in ITU-T and may be accepted by ITU-T some day.
I will reflect this in the next version.
We are afraid that this is not inline with the view of the majority of
participants in SG15/Q11.
[Fatai] I don't know
whether it is true or not. But I think we can hear the opinions from SG15/Q11.
Except of the extensions that are already described in two draft
(draft-ceccarellifuxh-ccamp-gmpls-ext-for-evol-otn, draft-zhang-ccamp-gmpls-evolving-g709),
all other content of section 3, 4 is copied from ITU standards. Would not it be
better to just refer to the ITU-T document?
[Fatai] In Section 3,
some part of information is from G.709 and G.872 and we reference this
recommendations explicitly. We just try to give a brief overview of OTN to
CCAMP experts from the perspective of Control Plane and make everyone quickly
understand why we need more considerations on OTN control. I think it is really
tough for everyone to go through G.709, G.872 and other recommendations
detailedly. As for Section 4, I don't know why you said that it is
copied from ITU standards. In Section 4, it describes the connection
management model for OTN networks, which is based on our understanding
and some discussions in ITU-T Q12.
Best regards,
Nurit
