   This memo provides extensions to Generalized Multi-Protocol Label
   Switching (GMPLS) signaling for control of wavelength switched
   optical networks (WSON).  Such extensions are necessary in WSONs
   under a number of conditions including: (a) when optional processing,
   such as regeneration, must be configured to occur at specific nodes
   along a path, (b) where equipment must be configured to accept an
   optical signal with specific attributes, or (c) where equipment must
   be configured to output an optical signal with specific attributes.
   In addition this memo provides mechanisms to support distributed
   wavelength assignment with bidirectional LSPs, and choice in
   distributed wavelength assignment algorithms. These extensions build
   on previous work for the control of lambda and G.709 based networks.
