SDH transmission network The inter-ring services are hard to be scheduled, because the inter-ring node becomes the bottleneck of scheduling the services.
The scalability of SDH network is poor. In the SDH/SONET ring structure, the bandwidth and efficiency are
low. Real-time management cannot be achieved. Network topology
changes cannot be displayed in the network management system in real time.

Why We Need ASON
VoiceVoiceVoiceVoice
DataDataDataData
With the rapid development of broadband data services and private-line lease services, the network capacity is increasing and the scheduling pressure is becoming heavy. As a result, automatic scheduling is required.
Data service burst requires that the bandwidth be applied automatically and dynamically. The traditional half-static configuration mode cannot meet the requirements.
The carrier requires reducing the OPEX and provides value-added services, because service increase does not bring proper profits.

What’s ASON
Automatically Switched Optical Network
Definition: With the distributed (or partial distributed) control plane that provides the function of automatically discovering and dynamically setting up a connection, you can achieve a dynamic, signaling-based, and policy-driven network based on the OTN or SDH network.

What Are the Solutions Provided by the ASON? The ASON provides the method of configuring and modifying services quickly and
conveniently. Moreover, it overcomes the difficulties of scheduling inter-ring services, and removes the bottleneck of scheduling services on an inter-ring node.
The flexible mesh network improves the service survivability and network scalability. Therefore, it solves the problem of poor scalability of the traditional network.
The network resource usage reaches more than 50%. Therefore, it solves the problems of low bandwidth usage and efficiency in the SDH/SONET ring network.
Real-time network management solves the problems of failing to manage the traditional network in real time, and failing to display the network topology changes in the network management system.
Data service problems are
solved.

SC: Switched connection (SC) is a service connection requested by a
terminal user (router, for example) and then created in the ASON control plane through signaling. Currently, it is not supported.
PC: Permanent connection (PC) is a service connection calculated
beforehand and then created through the NM by issuing a command to NE.
SPC: Soft permanent connection (SPC) between the user and the
transmission network is configured directly by the NM. However, the connection within the transmission network is requested by the NM and then created by the NE’s control plane through signaling.

Three links Control link
A control link is automatically discovered and maintained by the open shortest path first (OSPF). Each ASON NE floods its control links to the entire network. In this case, each NE can get the information about the control links in the entire network. Therefore, each NE can get the topology of the global control plane.
Data link Data links are classified into working links, protected links, and
unprotected links. The network management system does not present the concept of data link. A member like displayed in the network management system is a data link.
TE link TE link stands for traffic engineering link. An ASON NE uses the TE link
to transmit its information (for example, bandwidth) to other ASON NEs in the network. thus providing data for route computation. A fiber may contain multiple TE links.

Connectivity check of a data link between adjacent nodes can be conducted only after an available control channel is set up.
The LMP protocol describes the discovery and management of control channels.

A control channel transmits information through in-band (for example, through bytes D4-D12) mode or through out-band (for example, through Ethernet) mode.
The discovery and management functions of control channels are implemented by exchanging the Config messages and executing the keep-alive mechanism (by the Hello protocol).

Check preparation: After transmitting the BeginVerify message,
node A successfully receives the BeginVerifyAck message.
Check process: Node A periodically transmits the Test
message over the data link till it receives the teststatussuccess or teststatufailure message over the control channel.
Check end: After transmitting the Endverify message, node
A waits for the EndVerifyAck message, and has received it. Alternatively, node A times out to receive the EndVerifyACK message. In this case, the check process ends.
Check each data link.
After successfully checking the connectivity of data links, you can check the consistency of TE link attributes.

The consistency check function is used to check whether the interface mapping relation dynamically discovered or manually configured is consistent between two nodes.
If the interface mapping relation is consistent, the TE link changes to the UP status. In this case, the ASON routing module is informed that the TE link can be used to create an ASON service.
As the source of the TE LSA at the service plane on the routing module, a TE link is the prerequisite of creating the topology at the service plane.

Protection and Restoration Protection:
The protection function refers to protection switching here. Protection switching means that some network resources are particularly reserved for service protection before a fault occurs. After a fault occurs, the service traffic is switched from the faulty path to the protection path.
Restoration: The restoration function refers to rerouting here. Rerouting is a method for
restoring a service. When an LSP is interrupted, the ingress node of the LSP queries the optimal LSP route to restore a service. The signaling is transmitted to the download nodes hop by hop to request for reserving resources and setting up a cross-connection. The egress node returns signaling to the upstream nodes hop by hop. Finally, a new LSP is set up.
Differences: ◆ For the protection function, the services are restored
rapidly, and the protection resources need to be reserved. The resources are of low usage.◆ For the restoration function, the services are restored slowly, but the network resources are of high usage.
If no idle resources exist in the network, the services cannot be restored.

HUAWEI TECHNOLOGIES CO., LTD. Page 48Huawei Confidential
Protection and Restoration
Rerouting
Concept: Rerouting is a key feature of a service. When a bottom-layer transmission path fails, the
service is interrupted. Then a request for re-setting up a route is transmitted to the control plane.
After receiving the request, the control plane queries another route and allocates resources to set
up a new route. After a route is set up successfully, the old route is deleted from the ingress node.

Analysis needs to be conducted according to the services of different levels.
Lock-related concepts Rerouting lock: Sometimes, the services do not need to be rerouted in the case of LSP
failure. In this case, you need to set the rerouting lock function. After the rerouting
function is locked, a service is not rerouted if the LSP fails.
Rerouting Priority Options are: High, low.

The VC4 tunnel is used to carry the VC-12 service. Therefore, the VC-12 service can be configured in the ASON network.
When the VC-4 tunnel fails, the protection and restoration functions of the tunnel are enabled to protect and restore the VC-12 service.
When the tunneling service is switched for protection, the ASON software switches the tunnel, and the NE software switches the services at the two ends of the tunnel.

SRLG
SRLG stands for Shared Risk Link Group. Generally, a fiber in
the same cable shares the same risk. That is, if a cable is cut, all
the fibers in the cable are cut. An ASON service is not rerouted to
the link that has the same risk. Therefore, you need to correctly
set the SRLG for the link that has the same risk to ensure that the
two LSPs of the diamond service are not in the same cable.
Alternatively, the LSP of the rerouted ASON service is not the link
that has the same risk with the faulty link.
HUAWEI TECHNOLOGIES CO., LTD. Page 60Huawei Confidential
Network Traffic Equilibrium The CSPF algorithm is used to compute the optimal route in the ASON
network. When multiple LSPs exist between two nodes, possibly, several LSPs share the same route. This problem is avoided by the network traffic equilibrium function.

Resource Reservation For an ASON NE, the NE software and ASON software
respectively manages its own timeslots. The ASON software manages the timeslots in which ASON services are created. These timeslots cannot be used for the NE software to create SDH services.
Concept:
Resource reservation means that commands are used to
reserve all or partial timeslots for the NE software to create SDH
services. Before being unreserved, these ASON software cannot
be used.

Service Path Restoration Function Description
When fibers are cut and restored for many times, the current service path may be different from the original one. In this case, the service path restoration function can be implemented to restore all or some of the services to the original paths.
A service path can be saved as an original path at any time according to requirements. Currently, a path can be restored at the fiber level only. Therefore, a path at the timeslot level cannot be
restored. Implementation Principle
The original service paths are stored in the ASON software. When you click the Global Service Restoration button, the network management system delivers the service indexes to the ASON module one by one. Then the ASON software takes an original path as the specified path to optimize the services one by one.
Restoration Mode Revertive mode: After being rerouted, a service returns to the original route after some wait-for-
restoration time if the original route is normal. Non-revertive mode: After being rerouted, a service does not return to the original route no matter the
working route is normal or not. Networkwide service path restoration: Press to restore the service path.

10G Ring Network Analysis of the Provincial 10G Ring Network Analysis of the Provincial Trunk of China Telecom Hainan BranchTrunk of China Telecom Hainan Branch
For the traditional ring network scheme, bottlenecks exist on the kernel nodes: Sanya and Haikou.
At the early stage, no problems occur in the 155M service. For the GE
services in the future, 10 VC4s cannot meet the requirements. The total
bandwidth of the 155M and GE services is 136 VC4s at the two egress
interfaces. At most 2x64=126 VC4s can be provided for the current
configuration of the two 10G rings. Therefore, about 10 VC4 services cannot
be satisfied in the current 10G ring network.
In the ASON network, you do not need to reserve 50% bandwidth in each direction. In the four optical directions, 10x3/4x4 =30G = 192VC4s can be transmitted.
