1. Introduction
This experimental extension addresses the use cases described by
"draft-ietf-ccamp-dwdm-if-mng-ctrl-fwk" to the Spectrum Switched
Optical Network applications. LMP [RFC4902] provides link property
correlation capabilities that can be used between a transceiver
device and an Optical Line System (OLS) device. Link property
correlation is a procedure by which, intrinsic parameters and
capabilities are exchanged between two ends of a link. Link property
correlation as defined in RFC4204 allows either end of the link to
supervise the received signal and operate within a commonly
understood parameter window. Here the term 'link' refers in
particular to the attachment link between OXC and OLS (see Figure 1).
The relevant novelty is the interface configuration having a multiple
carrier where the client signal is spread on. The parameters are not
yet fully defined by ITU-, so this document can jast be seen as an
experimental proposal not binding operators and vendors to comply and
implement them

2. DWDM line system
Figure 1 shows a set of reference points (Rs and Ss), for a single-
channel connection between transmitter (Tx) and receiver (Rx)
devices. Here the DWDM network elements in between those devices
include an Optical Multiplexer (OM) and an Optical Demultiplexer
(OD). In addition it may include one or more Optical Amplifiers (OA)
and one or more Optical Add-Drop Multiplexers (OADM).

carrying the same client payload.

tributary input this can be a set of multiple transceivers
carrying the same client payload.

OXC : is an entity that contains Multiple carriers transponders
OLS : generic Flex-Spectrum optical system, it can be -
Optical Mux, Optical Demux, Optical Add
Drop Mux, Amplifier etc.
OLS to OLS: represents the Optical Multiplex section
Rs/Ss : reference points in between the OXC and the OLS
Figure 2: Extended LMP Model
3. Use Cases
The set of paramentes exchanged between OXC and OLS is to support the
Spectrum Switched Optical Network in therms of Number of Sub-carriers
available at the transceiver and their characteristics to provide the
SSON control plane all the information suitable to calculate the path
and the optical feasibility
4. Extensions to LMP-WDM Protocol
This document defines extensions to [RFC4209] to allow a set of
characteristic parameters, to be exchanged between a router or
optical switch and the optical line system to which it is attached.
In particular, this document defines additional Data Link sub-objects
to be carried in the LinkSummary message defined in [RFC4204] and
[RFC6205]. The OXC and OLS systems may be managed by different
Network management systems and hence may not know the capability and
status of their peer. These messages and their usage are defined in
subsequent sections of this document.
The following new messages are defined for the SSON extension
- Multi carrier Transceiver (sub-object Type = TBA)

5. Multi carrier Transceiver
These are a set of general parameters extending the description in
[G698.2] and [G.694.1]. ITU-T working groups are working to detail
most of parameters and an update of the TLV may be required.
Other than the Application Identifier described in [G698.2] and
draft-dharinigert-ccamp-dwdm-if-lmp the parameters to describe a
multicarrier transceiver are describes as follows:
1. Modulation format: indicates the Transceiver capabilities
to support a single or multiple modulation format like:
BPSK, DC-DP-BSPSK, QPSK, DP-QPSK, QAM16, DP-QAM16,
DC-DP-QAM16, 64QAM.
2. FEC: indicates the FEC types the transceiver can support
3. baud rate: symbols rate, basically this identify the
channel symbols number per second
4. Num Carriers: number of (sub)carriers the trasceiver can support
and can be "mapped" in a Mediachannel
5. Bits/symbol: number of bit per simbol (aka spectral efficiency)
6. Subcarrier band (minimum distance between subcarriers) in GHz
7. Guard band (required guard band at the side of media channel)
8. Sub-carrier TX Power: output optical power the transceiver can
provide
9. Sub-carrier RX Power: Input optical power Range the transceiver
can support, this is known also as Sensitivity
10 Max-pol-power-difference: max power difference between the
polarised components
11 Max-pol-skew-difference: maw Skew between polarised signal and
subcarriers supported by the transceiver
12. Sub-carrier OSNR robustness
Figure 3: The format of the this sub-object (Type = TBA, Length =
TBA) is as follows:
0 1 2 3
0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1

6. Security Considerations
LMP message security uses IPsec, as described in [RFC4204]. This
document only defines new LMP objects that are carried in existing
Hiremagalur, et al. Expires December 27, 2018 [Page 6]
Internet-Draft draft-ggalimbe-ccamp-flex-if-lmp-05 June 2018
LMP messages, similar to the LMP objects in [RFC:4209]. This
document does not introduce new security considerations.
7. IANA Considerations
LMP defines the following name spaces and
the ways in which IANA can make assignments to these namespaces:
- LMP Message Type
- LMP Object Class
- LMP Object Class type (C-Type) unique within the Object Class
- LMP Sub-object Class type (Type) unique within the Object Class
This memo introduces the following new assignments:
LMP Sub-Object Class names:
under DATA_LINK Class name (as defined in )
- Multi carrier Transceiver (sub-object Type = TBA)
