3 Migration & Interwork What is migration? MPLS to GMPLS migration is the process of evolving MPLS-TE-based control plane to GMPLS-based control plane. What is interworking? Interworking is just a facilitating function for migration, not a final objective of migration. (Migration and interworking are separate goals.) Interworking is an important technical driver for a migration model. (will be discussed later)

4 Migration models Island model Replace or upgrade MPLS island(s) to GMPLS capable. In between, there is translation. GMPLS and MPLS features are not identical, though similar. Need to interwork/complement different features at the border Integrated model Upgrade MPLS device(s) to speak both MPLS and GMPLS. Advanced feature is only via GMPLS- capable nodes. (No translation too) Once all devices become GMPLS-capable, the MPLS protocols may be turned off. Phased model Add GMPLS feature and protocol element into MPLS devices one at a time.

6 What models are available? To address Issues in MGM (non PSC) case Issues Lack of routing and signaling adjacencies Control plane resource exhaustion TE path computation between MPLS and GMPLS domains Models Peer, Overlay, Augmented draft-shiomoto-ccamp-mpls-gmpls-interwork-fmwk-00.txt GMPLS MPLS D-plane Peer Overlay/Augmented Do we have to support all three models? Any opinion? Model Visibility of optical domain Peer Full Overlay None Augmented Partial

Framework/Strategy i-d Revise draft-shiomoto-ccamp-mpls-gmpls-interwork- fmwk-00.txt By merging protocol interworking items etc.(see page 7) in draft-kumaki-ccamp-mpls-gmpls- interworking-01.txt Accepted as WG document?
