Control, Modeling and Use Cases of Coherent Optical Pluggables in IETF Networks

Explore a 32-minute NANOG tutorial that examines IETF's current initiatives in modeling, controlling, and implementing coherent optical pluggables within packet devices. Learn about the integration of these pluggables in multi-layer, multi-vendor packet over optical networks (IPoDWDM), with detailed insights into network operator-driven use cases and SDN controller implementations. Discover how various standard organizations including IETF, OpenConfig, OIF, ITU-T, T-API, and TIP are addressing these technological developments, while focusing on IETF's comprehensive approach to life cycle management of coherent pluggables. Gain knowledge about crucial aspects such as planning, viability assessment, provisioning, monitoring, telemetry collection, and optimization in multi-vendor IPoDWDM networks, presented by Ciena's Reza Rokui.
