Demand of Service
Broadband data service and leased line service are

increasing rapidly and the capacity of network is
getting larger.
Data service has the paroxysmal attribute.

ASON Service Type
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.
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.

Technology Development of ASONGMPLS
Generalized Multi-Protocol Label Switching
The GMPLS was brought forward by IETF at 2000.
Compared with MPLS, GMPLS has been improved

further:
Generalization of label mapping
Bidirectional transportation
Enhanced signaling ability
Integrated routing ability
Page15
ASON Standard Bodies

Mainly focus on publishing
Implementation Agreements,
Inter-operability
Demonstration:
UNI-1.0, UNI-2.0, E-NNI.
Brought GMPLS protocol

and finished RSVP-TE, LMP,
OSPF-TE.
Focus on requirements
and architecture, draw
up ASON/ASTN.

Protection and Restoration
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.
