ITU-T is responsible for studying technical, operating and tariff questions and issuing Recommendations on them with a

14、view to standardizing telecommunications on a worldwide basis. The World Telecommunication Standardization Assembly (WTSA), which meets every four years, establishes the topics for study by the ITU-T study groups which, in turn, produce Recommendations on these topics. The approval of ITU-T Recommen

15、dations is covered by the procedure laid down in WTSA Resolution 1. In some areas of information technology which fall within ITU-Ts purview, the necessary standards are prepared on a collaborative basis with ISO and IEC. NOTE In this Recommendation, the expression “Administration“ is used for conci

27、rks 1 Scope This Recommendation specifies the requirements and architecture for the routing functions used for the establishment of switched connections (SC) and soft permanent connections (SPC) within the framework of the Automatically Switched Optical Network (ASON). The main areas covered in this

28、 Recommendation include the ASON routing architecture, functional components including path selection, routing attributes, abstract messages and state diagrams. This Recommendation forms a part of the suite of Recommendations covering the full functionality of the automatic switched transport networ

29、k and the automatic switched optical network. It builds upon the high-level functional requirements and architecture as outlined in ITU-T Recs G.807/Y.1302 (ASTN) and G.8080/Y.1304 (ASON) as the baseline framework for the specification. This Recommendation is aimed at providing a protocol neutral ap

30、proach to describe routing for the automatic switched optical networks. Routing messages are transported over a data communication network (DCN). One possible implementation is specified in ITU-T Rec. G.7712/Y.1703. In order to provide routing service, a priori knowledge of the network resources is

31、needed. These resources may be manually provisioned or automatically discovered. ASON routing has many applications, e.g. traffic engineering, diverse routing, etc. However details of these applications are beyond the scope of this Recommendation. 2 References The following ITU-T Recommendations and

G.8080/Y.1304, e.g. h

44、ierarchical, step-by-step and source-based. The architecture also abstracts away differences in routing information representation, e.g. link-state, distance-vector, etc. The routing architecture applies after the network has been subdivided into routing areas, and the necessary network resources ha

45、ve been accordingly assigned. The process of subdividing the network into routing areas and assigning network resources is beyond the scope of this Recommendation. 5.1 Fundamental concepts An operator may choose to subdivide its network based upon specific operator policies, which could include such

46、 criteria as geography, administration, technology, etc. The network subdivisions may, by operator decision, be treated as routing areas for the purpose of providing a routing service. Routing areas provide for routing information abstraction, thereby enabling scalable routing information representa

47、tion. The service offered by a routing area (e.g. path selection) is provided by a Routing Performer (a federation of Routing Controllers), and each Routing Performer is responsible for a single routing area. The RP supports path computation functions consistent with one or more of the routing parad

48、igms listed in ITU-T Rec. G.8080/Y.1304 (source, hierarchical and step-by-step) for the particular routing area that it provides service for. The path computation 4 ITU-T Rec. G.7715/Y.1706 (06/2002) functions that may be supported by a RP are based upon the types of information available to it via

49、a Routing Information Database. Routing areas may be hierarchically contained and a separate Routing Performer is associated with each routing area in the routing hierarchy. It is possible for each level of the hierarchy to employ different Routing Performers that support different routing paradigms. Routing Performers are realized through the instantiation of possibly distributed Routing Controllers. The Routing Controller provides the routing service interface, i.e. the service access point, as defined for the Routing Performer. The Routing
