Abstract:

   Generalized Multi-Protocol Label Switching (GMPLS) control allows
   each network element (NE) to perform local resource discovery,
   routing and signaling in a distributed manner.

   The advancement of software-defined transport networking technology
   enables a group of NEs to be managed through centralized controller
   hierarchies. This helps to tackle challenges arising from multiple
   domains, vendors, and technologies. An example of such a centralized
   architecture is the Abstraction and Control of Traffic Engineered
   Networks (ACTN) controller hierarchy, as described in RFC 8453.

   Both the distributed and centralized control planes have their
   respective advantages and should complement each other in the
   system, rather than competing. This document outlines how the GMPLS
   distributed control plane can work together with a centralized
   controller system in a transport network.
