“…Another gap to be filled is the coordination between packet and optical parameters on the same node, which are often provided by two different SDN controllers. Indeed, in traditional control plane architectures, packet-related configurations are typically enforced by an SDN Controller dedicated to the packet domain (i.e., PckC), while optical parameters are configured by a different SDN controller dedicated to the optical domain (i.e., OptC) [7][8][9].…”
