The Generalized MPLS (GMPLS) suite of protocol has been defined to control
different switching technologies as well as different applications. These
include support for requesting TDM connections including SONET/SDH and
Optical Transport Networks (OTNs). This document concentrates on the
signaling aspects of the GMPLS suite of protocols. It identifies the
features to be covered by the GMPLS signalling protocol to support the
capabilities of an Automatically Switched Optical Network (ASON). This
document provides a problem statement and additional requirements on the
GMPLS signaling protocol to support the ASON functionality.
