Hybrid NetworksHeterogeneous By Nature
• Hybrid networks are extremely heterogeneous at several levels
• DataPlane can be constructed from• router based Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS)
tunnels• Ethernet VLAN based Circuits• Synchronous Optical Network / Synchronous Digital
Hierarchy (SONET/SDH) circuits• Wavelength Division Multiplexing (WDM) connections• Combinations of the above
Hybrid NetworksHeterogeneous By Nature
• Control Planes can be based on• Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS)• Generalized Multiprotocol Label Switching (GMPLS)• Web Services• Management Systems• Combinations of the above
• Client (user) services or attachment points could be• Ethernet• SONET• IP Router• InfiniBand
Hybrid NetworksWeb Service Control Plane Interfaces
• Web Services provides a mechanism to deal with heterogeneous control planes• inspired by the standards bodies work on control plane protocols,
but not just recreating that work at the web service level • Better described as using control plane techniques to develop a
“service plane”

Hybrid NetworksWeb Service Control Plane Interfaces
• Four Primary Web Services Areas: • Topology Exchange, Resource Scheduling, Signaling, User Request
Hybrid NetworksControl Plane Architecture
• The benefits offered by Web Services include• standardized mechanisms for user authentication and policy
management• flexible features for interfacing with a diverse set of I-NNI
mechanisms• Allows focus on several issues that current control plane work
has not addressed in a robust manner:• scalability, stability, security, flexible application of policy, AAA,
scheduling
• Will still allow for peering domains with compatible non web service E-NNI (i.e. GMPLS based) to utilize that as desired• a domain might peer with one domain at GMPLS level, and
another at the Web Service level
Web Service based E-NNIThree Main Components
• Routing• Topology Exchange• Domain Abstraction• Varying levels of dynamic information
