Client 2 (Green) Shared Context: Multi-Node Topology
Multiple Nodes (PEs) Topology example Node and its NodeEdgePoints provide reasonable information of their capabilities ConnectivityService can be requested between ServiceInterfacePoints Top-level Connection is recursively decomposed into lower-level Connections, 1 per Node Connection route can be traced over the exposed Topology Node Edge Point (Internal) Node Edge Point (Edge) Service End Point Link Transitional Link Mapping Topology Node Connection EndPoint Connection Service Interface Point Shared Context PE2 ETH Connection PE1 PE3 Connectivity Service

Admin (Pink) Shared Context: Multi-layer Topology
Each physical device is represented by a separate Node per supported layer (ETH & ODU) Node and its NodeEdgePoints provide information of their capabilities at that layer Transitional Links interconnect the NodeEdgePoints at different layers Top-level Connection is recursively decomposed into lower-level Connections, 1 per Node Top-level Connections at lower (server) layer result in Links at upper (client) layer Node Edge Point (Internal) Node Edge Point (Edge) Service End Point Link Transitional Link Mapping Topology Node Connection EndPoint Connection Service Interface Point TAPI Context PE2e 1 2 PE1e PE3e 3 PE2o 2 1 PE1o PE3o P4o 3
