“…3) Failure detection: Finally, NETCONF can also be used for fast failure detection, which is very important to provide resilience. Loureiro et al have developed a NETCONF agent for link state monitoring [188]. The agent uses event notifications to inform the manager about link failures.…”

Since the appearance of OpenFlow back in 2008, Software-Defined Networking (SDN) has gained momentum. Although there are some discrepancies between the standards developing organisations working with SDN about what SDN is and how it is defined, they all outline Traffic Engineering (TE) as a key application. One of the most common objectives of TE is the congestion minimisation, where techniques such as traffic splitting among multiple paths or advanced reservation systems are used. In such a scenario, this manuscript surveys the role of a comprehensive list of SDN protocols in TE solutions, in order to assess how these protocols can benefit TE. The SDN protocols have been categorised using the SDN architecture proposed by the Open Networking Foundation (ONF), which differentiates among Data-Controller Plane Interfaces, Application-Controller Plane Interfaces and Management Interfaces, in order to state how the interface type in which they operate influences TE. In addition, the impact of the SDN protocols on TE has been evaluated by comparing them with the Path Computation Element (PCE)based architecture. The PCE-based architecture has been selected to measure the impact of SDN on TE because it is the most novel TE architecture until the date, and because it already defines a set of metrics to measure the performance of TE solutions. We conclude that using the three types of interfaces simultaneously will result in more powerful and enhanced TE solutions, since they benefit TE in complementary ways.

“…For example, in [11], authors propose a NETCONF agent for link state monitoring compared with other management technologies such as Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP). In [12], authors highlight the benefits provided by NETCONF in terms of security and scalability, compared with SNMP and REpresentational State Transfer (REST).…”

NETCONF is emerging as Software Defined Networking (SDN) protocol for the control and management of optical networks. It enables data plane device configuration and access to monitoring information. NETCONF may exploit YANG data model to describe network elements to be controlled/managed. YANG and NETCONF are of interest for operators since they provide a standard way to control and manage network elements, independently from the vendor. This paper presents and demonstrates a management plane based on NETCONF protocol. In particular, a YANG model describing optical transponders supporting slice-ability, variable rate, and monitoring functionalities is proposed. NETCONF experimental demonstrations are carried out to validate the proposed model and to prove the control and management capabilities of these technologies applied to elastic optical networks (EONs)
