Many transport networks still based on SONET/SDH (circuit
switching technology)
Packet-based growing fast and dominating traffic mix
(driven by Video, Mobile, Cloud, application migration to IP)

Increased changes in traffic patterns (mobility, cloud) Transport networks migrating to packet switching for
Bandwidth efficiency (statistical multiplexing) Bandwidth flexibility (bandwidth granularity, signaling)

Cisco Public
Joint agreement between ITU-
T and IETF to develop a transport profile based on MPLS

Packet transport requirements
Requirements
brought to IETF
MPLS forwarding, OAM,
control plane, management and survivability extended at IETF
MPLS transport extensions
MPLS-TP
Cisco Public
Connection-oriented packet-switching technology Point-to-point (P2P) and point-to-multipoint (P2MP)
transport paths
Separation of control and management planes
from data plane
Deployable with or without a control plane Should retain similar operational model of
traditional transport technologies
Multi-service (IP, MPLS, Ethernet, ATM, FR, etc) Should support bandwidth reservation Support for 1:1, 1:n, 1+1 protection with similar
techniques to traditional transport technologies
Support for In-band OAM
