Abstract: An apparatus includes a reconfigurable optical add/drop multiplexer (ROADM) having an input port to receive a first optical signal from a second device. The ROADM also includes a first wavelength selective switch (WSS), in optical communication with the input port, to convert the first optical signal into a second optical signal, a loopback, in optical communication with the first WSS, to transmit the second optical signal, and a second WSS, in optical communication with the loopback, to convert the second optical signal to a third optical signal and direct the third optical signal back to the second device via the input port.

Abstract: Disclosed embodiments utilize a layer three and/or layer four protocol to collect physical layer properties along a multi-hop network path between a source node and a destination node. The use of a layer three or layer four protocol provides an ability to span multiple links or networks between the source node and destination node, while also collecting the physical layer properties. Once physical layer properties along a network path can be understood, decisions relating to the configuration of the network path and/or whether to communicate via the network path are improved.

Abstract: In response to a connectivity disruption in an underlying optical transport ring supporting a routing and packet switching topology, one or more of optical devices of the optical transport ring are modified to establish connectivity between spine nodes in different data centers to reroute communication between at least a subset of the leaf network devices so as to traverse an inter-spine route via the optical modified optical transport ring. That is, in response to a connectivity disruption in a portion of underlying optical transport ring, one or more optical devices within the optical transport ring are modified such that packets between at least a portion of the leaf devices are rerouted along optical paths between at least two of the spine network devices.

Abstract: A system includes a first communication device and a second communication device in communication with the first communication device via an Ethernet connection. The first communication device is configured to transmit, via the Ethernet connection toward the second communication device, an Ethernet signal including information of a designated wavelength from a dense wavelength division multiplexing (DWDM) scheme to be used by the second communication device. The second communication device is configured to transmit an optical signal at the designated wavelength to the first communication device in response to receiving the Ethernet signal.

Abstract: Techniques for providing closed-loop control and predictive analytics in packet-optical networks are described. For example, an integrated, centralized controller provides tightly-integrated, closed-loop control over switching and routing services and the underling optical transport system of a communication network. In one implementation, the controller includes an analytics engine that applies predictable analytics to real-time status information received from a monitoring subsystem distributed throughout the underlying optical transport system. Responsive to the status information, the analytics engine applies rules to adaptively and proactively identify current or predicted topology-changing events and, responsive to those events, maps reroutes packet flows through a routing/switching network and control and, based on any updated bandwidth requirements due to topology changes, dynamically adjusts allocation and utilization of the optical spectrum and wavelengths within the underlying optical transport system.
