An example of how an optical network could be configured and used is provided. A simple experiment on switching of optical paths is described. ---- = Compute Nodes and ToR switch interfaces used = * Each compute node has 2 ethernet interfaces: {{{ eo1 from data1 pool eo2 form data2 pool }}} * Interfaces from srv1..4.lg1 -- data1 pool of interfaces {{{ twentyFiveGigE 1/1/1 twentyFiveGigE 1/1/2 twentyFiveGigE 1/1/3 twentyFiveGigE 1/1/4 }}} * Interfaces from srv1..4.lg1 -- data2 pool of interfaces {{{ twentyFiveGigE 1/2/1 twentyFiveGigE 1/2/2 twentyFiveGigE 1/2/3 twentyFiveGigE 1/2/4 }}} * Interfaces from srv1..2.co1 -- data1 pool of interfaces {{{ twentyFiveGigE 1/11/3 twentyFiveGigE 1/11/4 }}} * Interfaces from srv1..2.co1 -- data2 pool of interfaces {{{ twentyFiveGigE 1/12/3 twentyFiveGigE 1/12/4 }}} ---- = Experiment_1 Context = || [[Image(Experiment_1.png, width=500px)]] || Fig.1 Logical Topology of Experiment_1 Experiment consists in changing the light path from ToR1<-->ToR2 to ToR1<-->ToR3, representing changing of the light path in C-RAN when “Client” wants to move its base-band processing from “Edge Cloud” to “Central Cloud”. Experiment includes 3 servers: {{{ srv1-lg1.bed.cosmos-lab.org srv2-lg1.bed.cosmos-lab.org srv3-lg1.bed.cosmos-lab.org }}} Experiment includes 4 ROADMs: {{{ roadm1-co1.cosmos-lab.org (10.104.1.1) roadm2-co1.cosmos-lab.org (10.104.1.2) roadm3-co1.cosmos-lab.org (10.104.1.3) roadm4-co1.cosmos-lab.org (10.104.1.4) }}} 3 interfaces are connected to these servers from data1 pool of ToR interfaces: {{{ twentyFiveGigE 1/1/1 <--> srv1-lg1.bed.cosmos-lab.org twentyFiveGigE 1/1/2 <--> srv2-lg1.bed.cosmos-lab.org twentyFiveGigE 1/1/3<--> srv3-lg1.bed.cosmos-lab.org }}} 3 interfaces and 3 transceivers are associated with them in vlans: {{{ vlan 121: twentyFiveGigE 1/1/1 ; tengigabitethernet 1/32/1; vlan 122: twentyFiveGigE 1/1/2; tengigabitethernet 1/29/1; vlan 123: twentyFiveGigE 1/1/2; tengigabitethernet 1/31/1; }}} We are assigning next wavelengths to tengigabitethernet: {{{ 1553,30 nm 193,00 with bandwidth ~[192.95;193.05] Thz }}} ---- = Setting Up Optical Topology = Setting up an optical topology consists in connecting ROADMs accordingly to the needs of experiment. ROADMs need to be connected correctly to each other and to ToR switch. All interconnections are realized by Calient S320 Switch. [[Include(Architecture/optical#prog_topo)]] Fig.2 Physical Optical Interconnections. Calient Switch S320 has ports physically connected to ROADMs, ToR, Prof. Zussman’s lab and 3 loopback connections. All ports are designated in the Fig.2 Physical Optical Interconnections. In order to support the Experiment_1 logical connections and to realize emulate real distance between Edge Cloud an Central Cloud, one could choose to pass the optical signal through the loop of 22 km passing by 32 Avenue of the Americas, NYC; and organize Client port Connections as Next: ||ID||||Ports Connection||||Devices Connection||||Comment|| ||1||||1.1.1-1.4.1||||ROADM1.port_1 to ROADM2.port_1||||Forming pass through connection between ROADM1 and ROADM2|| ||2||||1.1.2-5.7.1||||ROADM1.port_2 to ToR.port_29||||Connecting transceiver on ToR on port 29 to ROADM1 add/drop port 2|| ||3||||1.4.8-5.8.1||||ROADM2.line to 32AoA.P1_P2||||Connecting line port or ROADM2 to port P1_P2 of a 22 km fiber loop going through 32 AoA.|| ||4||||1.7.2-5.7.3||||ROADM3.port_2 to ToR.port_31||||Connecting transceiver on ToR on port 31 to ROADM3 add/drop port 2|| ||5||||1.7.4-5.5.1||||ROADM3.port_4 to Loopback.port_1||||Connecting ROADM3 add/drop port 4 to a loop-back connection.

Calient S320 Connections Table. ---- = ROADMs Configuration = All of these configurations can be performed by Python scripts developed to work with the COSMOS test-bed. The Python commands send NETCONF commands to the ROADM. == Setting “Snake” Connection == Correct ROADM operation requires Line In port of a ROADM to always receive a light. That is why there is a dedicated transceiver (tengigabitethernet 1/33 on ToR) that sends light through all ROADMs by passing through loop-back connection on Calient S320 (port 5.5.1) and redirecting back, so the light is received on the same transceiver. This kind of connection is called “Snake”. In order maintain this “Snake” for “Experiment_1” next connections form Table 1 must be in place: 1,3,5,6,8,9. === tengigabitethernet 1/33/1 on ToR configuration === Snake Interface (to passe through all ROADMs in loop): 60 (DWDM Channel C60) 1529,55 nm 196,00 Thz with frequency range [195.95,196.05] Thz === MUX/DEMUX configuration === * ROADM 4: DEMUX IN/OUT port: 5101/5204 MUX IN/OUT port: 4104/4201 * ROADM 1: DEMUX IN/OUT port: 5101/5201 MUX IN/OUT port: 4101/4201 * ROADM 2: DEMUX IN/OUT port: 5101/5201 MUX IN/OUT port: 4101/4201 * ROADM 3: DEMUX IN/OUT port: 5101/5204 MUX IN/OUT port: 4104/4201 === ALS Disable Sequence (for 60 seconds) === 1.
