Covering past, present and future transport networks using three layered planes written by experts in the field. Targeted at both practitioners and academics as a single source to get an understanding of how transport networks are built and operated Explains technologies enabling the next generation transport networks
This practical, in-depth reference offers an exhaustive body of knowledge about every element that form and work with optical transport networks, including network applications, protocols, software and hardware technologies. The book paints a cohesive picture of transport network technologies for effective and thorough engineering and management. Specifically, it focuses on TDM technologies since IP, ATM, FR, and Ethernet traffic is transported by core TDM optical transport networks. presenting a comprehensive overview of three up and coming SONET technologies: Generic Framing Procedure (GFP), Virtual Concatenation (VCAT) and Link Capacity Adjustment Scheme (LCAS). Management technologies and protocols, including SNMP, CORBA, HTTP, XML, and CMIP/CMISE, are presented in a unified manner that illustrates how these protocols all use request/response and notification paradigm. Service provision and monitoring for ensuring network survivability, as well as the key role of OSSs play in customer satisfaction, complete this exhaustive treatment of optical transport network engineering and management.
