Unlocking Multi-layer SDN with Openness
Jun 23, 2015
Historically, telecommunications networks have been dominated by proprietary vendor hardware and management systems, creating multiple layers of closed services and infrastructure.
With the rise of packet-optical transport devices and the advent of software-defined networks (SDN), we can now create networks with unprecedented agility, efficiency and programmability.

Packet Transport
Optical (Electric)
Optical (Photonic)
Closed services & infrastructure layers
Infrastructure evolves to be Packet-Optical, more open
SDN = Open Forwarding, Control, and Programmability … initially for packet services & infrastructure
ONF Optical Transport Group Adding Optical to SDN
Multi-Layer SDN + Openness = More Intelligent, Agile, Efficient Networks
Integrating the SDN topology model, cost, and path computation leads to Multi-Layer SDN
