5 Electrical-Layer ASON
3 Control Plane
The control plane complies with LMP, OSPF, and RSVP-TE protocols.
ASON introduces GMPLS control plane to achieve dynamic connection management, automatic
discovery, protection & restoration, and CAPEX & OPEX reduction.

There two types of electrical-layer ASON: OTN ASON and SDH ASON. Electrical-layer ASON is based on optical-layer server
trails. The OTUk link or VC link may be inconsistent with the physical topology.
OTN ASON can be easily deployed on standard OTN networks to improve the network reliability.

Diamond service
Failure
Permanent 1+1
When an LSP of a diamond service fails, the service switches to the
protection LSP and then the faulty LSP is rerouted.
1+1 rerouting
When an LSP fails, the service
switches to the other LSP. The
other LSP is rerouted upon
another failure.

1+1 non-rerouting
No rerouting is performed even when both LSPs fail. Its the same
as traditional 1+1 protection.

The ASON can transport services of different SLAs based on customers requirements. The SLA divides services into various
levels according to the service protection capability.
