Background and Advantages
Requirement
The service configuration

is complex and capacity
expansion or service
provision takes a long period.
The bandwidth utilization

is of a low rate and low
efficiency. In a ring network,
half of the bandwidth should
be reserved.
Just a few protection

schemes are available and
the performance of selfhealing protection is poor.
Solution
End-to-end service
configuration, the network
automatically performs the
required operations
With the routing function

the ASON can provide
protection by reserving fewer
resources
In ASON, mesh is the

main topology, multiple
service types are defined to
meet different customer
requirements.

TE Link
TE link is a traffic engineering link. The ASON NE sends its

bandwidth information to other ASON NEs through the TE link
to provide data for route computation. One inter-station fiber
between two FIU boards can be configured with one TE link.
Page11

z
ASON Domain
An ASON domain is a subset of a network, which is classified

by function for the purpose of route selection and management.
An ASON domain consists of several ASON NEs and TE links.
One ASON NE belongs to one ASON domain.
Page12

z
PC: Permanent connection is a service connection calculated

beforehand and then created through the NM by issuing a command
to NE.
SPC: Soft permanent connection, the connection between the user

and the transmission network is configured directly by the NM. The
connection within the transmission network is requested by the NM
and then created by the NEs control plane through signaling.
SC: Switched connection is a service connection requested by a

terminal user (router, for example) and then created in the ASON
control plane through signaling.

ASON Protocol
z
The ASON software is formed by several modules. Each module

realizes different functions.
ASON software is used in the control plane, using LMP, OSPF-TE,

and RSVP-TE.
OSPF-TE (routing):
RSVP-TE (signaling):
Flood and gather topology for calculating service path
Establish and maintain the service path
LMP (link management):
Discover the neighbors and links
Page16
ASON Protocol
z
LMP is a protocol used between nodes
LMP implements link resource discovery and management

function:
Creating and maintaining the control channels between

adjacent nodes.
Verifying component links and TE links.

OSPF-TE: The control plane of Huawei OptiX GCP applies

the OSPF-TE, which is an extended protocol for OSPF, and
performs the following functions.
Creates neighbor relations.
Creates and maintains control links.
Floods and collects the information about the control links on

the control plane.
Floods and collects the information about the TE links on the

transport plane.

ASON Links

ASON Links include control tunnels, control links, and TE

links.
Control Channels: The control channel then provides a

physical channel for the LMP packets.
Control Links: The communication links created for the

communication between the protocol entities of NEs.
TE Links: Traffic Engineering Links.
Page24
TE Links
z
Different boards generate different TE links. TE links can be

classified into the following types:
OCh TE link

You only need to specify its source node, sink node, bandwidth
requirement, and protection level. Service routing and cross-connection at
intermediate nodes are all automatically completed by the ASON NEs.
You can also set some nodes or links that the service necessarily passes
through or not pass through to restrict the service routing.

The routing protocol selects the best route. It is based on three conditions:
transmission distance, Hops and Bandwidth balance.
Page38

z
Protection: Protection switch. Redundancy resource is

reserved to protect the working traffic in very short time
when working channels is failed;
Restoration: Real time reroute. Routing protocol will

recalculate the service path, then signaling protocol re-build
the new LSP to restore service.

SLA
The ASON network can provide services of different QoS to

different clients.
The service level agreement (SLA) is used to classify services

according to the service protection.
HuaWeis service level: Diamond service, Gold service, Silver

service, Copper service.
