.. _transportpce-dev-guide: TransportPCE Developer Guide ============================ Overview -------- TransportPCE describes an application running on top of the OpenDaylight controller. Its primary function is to control an optical transport infrastructure using a non-proprietary South Bound Interface (SBI). It may be interconnected with Controllers of different layers (L2, L3 Controller…), a higher layer Controller and/or an Orchestrator through non-proprietary Application Programing Interfaces (APIs). Control includes the capability to configure the optical equipment, and to provision services according to a request coming from a higher layer controller and/or an orchestrator. This capability may rely on the controller only or it may be delegated to distributed (standardized) protocols. Architecture ------------ TransportPCE modular architecture is described on the next diagram. Each main function such as Topology management, Path Calculation Engine (PCE), Service handler, Renderer \_responsible for the path configuration through optical equipment\_ and Optical Line Management (OLM) is associated with a generic block relying on open models, each of them communicating through published APIs. .. figure:: ./images/TransportPCE-Diagramm-Magnesium.jpg :alt: TransportPCE architecture TransportPCE architecture Fluorine, Neon and Sodium releases of transportPCE are dedicated to the control of WDM transport infrastructure. The WDM layer is built from colorless ROADMs and transponders. The interest of using a controller to provision automatically services strongly relies on its ability to handle end to end optical services that spans through the different network domains, potentially equipped with equipment coming from different suppliers. Thus, interoperability in the optical layer is a key element to get the benefit of automated control. Initial design of TransportPCE leverages OpenROADM Multi-Source-Agreement (MSA) which defines interoperability specifications, consisting of both Optical interoperability and Yang data models. Experimental support of OTN layer is introduced in Magnesium release of OpenDaylight. By experimental, we mean not all features can be accessed through northbound API based on RESTCONF encoded OpenROADM Service model. In the meanwhile, "east/west" APIs shall be used to trigger a path computation in the PCE (using path-computation-request RPC) and to create services (using otn-service-path RPC). With Magnesium SR2, TransportPCE starts to manage some end-to-end OTN services, as for example, OCH-OTU4, structured ODU4 or again 10GE-ODU2e services. OTN support will continue to be improved in the following releases. Module description ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ServiceHandler ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Service Handler handles request coming from a higher level controller or an orchestrator through the northbound API, as defined in the Open ROADM service model. Current implementation addresses the following rpcs: service-create, temp-service-create, service–delete, temp-service-delete, service-reroute, and service-restoration. It checks the request consistency and trigs path calculation sending rpcs to the PCE. If a valid path is returned by the PCE, path configuration is initiated relying on Renderer and OLM. At the confirmation of a successful service creation, the Service Handler updates the service- list/temp-service-list in the MD-SAL. For service deletion, the Service Handler relies on the Renderer and the OLM to delete connections and reset power levels associated with the service. The service-list is updated following a successful service deletion. In Neon SR0 is added the support for service from ROADM to ROADM, which brings additional flexibility and notably allows reserving resources when transponders are not in place at day one. Magnesium SR2 fully supports end-to-end OTN services which are part of the OTN infrastructure. It concerns the management of OCH-OTU4 (also part of the optical infrastructure) and structured HO-ODU4 services. Moreover, once these two kinds of OTN infrastructure service created, it is possible to manage some LO-ODU services (for the time being, only 10GE-ODU2e services). The full support of OTN services, including 1GE-ODU0 or 100GE, will be introduced along next releases. PCE ^^^ The Path Computation Element (PCE) is the component responsible for path calculation. An interface allows the Service Handler or external components such as an orchestrator to request a path computation and get a response from the PCE including the computed path(s) in case of success, or errors and indication of the reason for the failure in case the request cannot be satisfied. Additional parameters can be provided by the PCE in addition to the computed paths if requested by the client module. An interface to the Topology Management module allows keeping PCE aligned with the latest changes in the topology. Information about current and planned services is available in the MD-SAL data store. Current implementation of PCE allows finding the shortest path, minimizing either the hop count (default) or the propagation delay. Wavelength is assigned considering a fixed grid of 96 wavelengths. In Neon SR0, the PCE calculates the OSNR, on the base of incremental noise specifications provided in Open ROADM MSA. The support of unidirectional ports is also added. PCE handles the following constraints as hard constraints: - **Node exclusion** - **SRLG exclusion** - **Maximum latency** In Magnesium SR0, the interconnection of the PCE with GNPY (Gaussian Noise Python), an open-source library developed in the scope of the Telecom Infra Project for building route planning and optimizing performance in optical mesh networks, is fully supported. If the OSNR calculated by the PCE is too close to the limit defined in OpenROADM specifications, the PCE forwards through a REST interface to GNPY external tool the topology and the pre-computed path translated in routing constraints. GNPy calculates a set of Quality of Transmission metrics for this path using its own library which includes models for OpenROADM. The result is sent back to the PCE. If the path is validated, the PCE sends back a response to the service handler. In case of invalidation of the path by GNPY, the PCE sends a new request to GNPY, including only the constraints expressed in the path-computation-request initiated by the Service Handler. GNPy then tries to calculate a path based on these relaxed constraints. The result of the path computation is provided to the PCE which translates the path according to the topology handled in transportPCE and forwards the results to the Service Handler. GNPy relies on SNR and takes into account the linear and non-linear impairments to check feasibility. In the related tests, GNPy module runs externally in a docker and the communication with T-PCE is ensured via HTTPs. Topology Management ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Topology management module builds the Topology according to the Network model defined in OpenROADM. The topology is aligned with IETF I2RS RFC8345 model. It includes several network layers: - **CLLI layer corresponds to the locations that host equipment** - **Network layer corresponds to a first level of disaggregation where we separate Xponders (transponder, muxponders or switchponders) from ROADMs** - **Topology layer introduces a second level of disaggregation where ROADMs Add/Drop modules ("SRGs") are separated from the degrees which includes line amplifiers and WSS that switch wavelengths from one to another degree** - **OTN layer introduced in Magnesium includes transponders as well as switch-ponders and mux-ponders having the ability to switch OTN containers from client to line cards. SR0 release includes creation of the switching pool (used to model cross-connect matrices), tributary-ports and tributary-slots at the initial connection of NETCONF devices. The population of OTN links (OTU4 and ODU4), and the adjustment of the tributary ports/slots pool occupancy when OTN services are created is supported since Magnesium SR2.** Renderer ^^^^^^^^ The Renderer module, on request coming from the Service Handler through a service- implementation-request /service delete rpc, sets/deletes the path corresponding to a specific service between A and Z ends. The path description provided by the service-handler to the renderer is based on abstracted resources (nodes, links and termination-points), as provided by the PCE module. The renderer converts this path-description in a path topology based on device resources (circuit-packs, ports,…). The conversion from abstracted resources to device resources is performed relying on the portmapping module which maintains the connections between these different resource types. Portmapping module also allows to keep the topology independant from the devices releases. In Neon (SR0), portmapping module has been enriched to support both openroadm 1.2.1 and 2.2.1 device models. The full support of openroadm 2.2.1 device models (both in the topology management and the rendering function) has been added in Neon SR1. In Magnesium, portmapping is enriched with the supported-interface-capability, OTN supporting-interfaces, and switching-pools (reflecting cross-connection capabilities of OTN switch-ponders). After the path is provided, the renderer first checks what are the existing interfaces on the ports of the different nodes that the path crosses. It then creates missing interfaces. After all needed interfaces have been created it sets the connections required in the nodes and notifies the Service Handler on the status of the path creation. Path is created in 2 steps (from A to Z and Z to A). In case the path between A and Z could not be fully created, a rollback function is called to set the equipment on the path back to their initial configuration (as they were before invoking the Renderer). Magnesium brings the support of OTN services. SR0 supports the creation of OTU4, ODU4, ODU2/ODU2e and ODU0 interfaces. The creation of these low-order otn interfaces must be triggered through otn-service-path RPC. Magnesium SR2 fully supports end-to-end otn service implementation into devices (service-implementation-request /service delete rpc, topology alignement after the service has been created). OLM ^^^ Optical Line Management module implements two main features: it is responsible for setting up the optical power levels on the different interfaces, and is in charge of adjusting these settings across the life of the optical infrastructure. After the different connections have been established in the ROADMS, between 2 Degrees for an express path, or between a SRG and a Degree for an Add or Drop path; meaning the devices have set WSS and all other required elements to provide path continuity, power setting are provided as attributes of these connections. This allows the device to set all complementary elements such as VOAs, to guaranty that the signal is launched at a correct power level (in accordance to the specifications) in the fiber span. This also applies to X-Ponders, as their output power must comply with the specifications defined for the Add/Drop ports (SRG) of the ROADM. OLM has the responsibility of calculating the right power settings, sending it to the device, and check the PM retrieved from the device to verify that the setting was correctly applied and the configuration was successfully completed. Inventory ^^^^^^^^^ TransportPCE Inventory module is responsible to keep track of devices connected in an external MariaDB database. Other databases may be used as long as they comply with SQL and are compatible with OpenDaylight (for example MySQL). At present, the module supports extracting and persisting inventory of devices OpenROADM MSA version 1.2.1. Inventory module changes to support newer device models (2.2.1, etc) and other models (network, service, etc) will be progressively included. The inventory module can be activated by the associated karaf feature (odl-transporpce-inventory) The database properties are supplied in the “opendaylight-release” and “opendaylight-snapshots” profiles. Below is the settings.xml with properties included in the distribution. The module can be rebuild from sources with different parameters. Sample entry in settings.xml to declare an external inventory database: :: opendaylight-release [..] <>:3306 <> <> <> odl-transportpce-inventory [..] opendaylight-snapshots [..] <>:3306 <> <> <> odl-transportpce-inventory Once the project built and when karaf is started, the cfg file is generated in etc folder with the corresponding properties supplied in settings.xml. When devices with OpenROADM 1.2.1 device model are mounted, the device listener in the inventory module loads several device attributes to various tables as per the supplied database. The database structure details can be retrieved from the file tests/inventory/initdb.sql inside project sources. Installation scripts and a docker file are also provided. Key APIs and Interfaces ----------------------- External API ~~~~~~~~~~~~ North API, interconnecting the Service Handler to higher level applications relies on the Service Model defined in the MSA. The Renderer and the OLM are developed to allow configuring Open ROADM devices through a southbound Netconf/Yang interface and rely on the MSA’s device model.

Stubs are used for development purposes and can be used for some of the functionnal tests. Interfaces to external software ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ It defines the interfaces implemented to interconnect TransportPCE modules with other software in order to perform specific tasks GNPy interface ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ - Request structure - topology : composed of list of elements and connections - service : source, destination, explicit-route-objects, path-constraints - Response structure - path-properties/path-metric : OSNR-0.1nm, OSNR-bandwidth, SNR-0.1nm, SNR-bandwidth, - path-properties/path-route-objects : composed of path elements Running transportPCE project ---------------------------- To use transportPCE controller, the first step is to connect the controller to optical nodes through the NETCONF connector. .. note:: In the current version, only optical equipment compliant with open ROADM datamodels are managed by transportPCE. Connecting nodes ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ To connect a node, use the following JSON RPC **REST API** : *POST /restconf/config/network-topology:network-topology/topology/topology-netconf/node/* **Sample JSON Data** .. code:: json { "node": [ { "node-id": "", "netconf-node-topology:tcp-only": "false", "netconf-node-topology:reconnect-on-changed-schema": "false", "netconf-node-topology:host": "", "netconf-node-topology:default-request-timeout-millis": "120000", "netconf-node-topology:max-connection-attempts": "0", "netconf-node-topology:sleep-factor": "1.5", "netconf-node-topology:actor-response-wait-time": "5", "netconf-node-topology:concurrent-rpc-limit": "0", "netconf-node-topology:between-attempts-timeout-millis": "2000", "netconf-node-topology:port": "", "netconf-node-topology:connection-timeout-millis": "20000", "netconf-node-topology:username": "", "netconf-node-topology:password": "", "netconf-node-topology:keepalive-delay": "300" } ] } Then check that the netconf session has been correctly established between the controller and the node. the status of **netconf-node-topology:connection-status** must be **connected** **REST API** : *GET /restconf/operational/network-topology:network-topology/topology/topology-netconf/node/* Node configuration discovery ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Once the controller is connected to the node, transportPCE application automatically launchs a discovery of the node configuration datastore and creates **Logical Connection Points** to any physical ports related to transmission. All *circuit-packs* inside the node configuration are analyzed. Use the following JSON RPC to check that function internally named *portMapping*. **REST API** : *GET /restconf/config/portmapping:network* .. note:: In ``org-openroadm-device.yang``, four types of optical nodes can be managed: * rdm: ROADM device (optical switch) * xpdr: Xponder device (device that converts client to optical channel interface) * ila: in line amplifier (optical amplifier) * extplug: external pluggable (an optical pluggable that can be inserted in an external unit such as a router) TransportPCE currently supports rdm and xpdr Depending on the kind of open ROADM device connected, different kind of *Logical Connection Points* should appear, if the node configuration is not empty: - DEG-TTP-: created on the line port of a degree on a rdm equipment - SRG-PP: created on the client port of a srg on a rdm equipment - XPDR-CLIENT: created on the client port of a xpdr equipment - XPDR-NETWORK: created on the line port of a xpdr equipment For further details on openROADM device models, see `openROADM MSA white paper `__. Optical Network topology ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Before creating an optical connectivity service, your topology must contain at least two xpdr devices connected to two different rdm devices. Normally, the *openroadm-topology* is automatically created by transportPCE. Nevertheless, depending on the configuration inside optical nodes, this topology can be partial. Check that link of type *ROADMtoROADM* exists between two adjacent rdm nodes. **REST API** : *GET /restconf/config/ietf-network:network/openroadm-topology* If it is not the case, you need to manually complement the topology with *ROADMtoROADM* link using the following REST RPC: **REST API** : *POST /restconf/operations/networkutils:init-roadm-nodes* **Sample JSON Data** .. code:: json { "networkutils:input": { "networkutils:rdm-a-node": "", "networkutils:deg-a-num": "", "networkutils:termination-point-a": "", "networkutils:rdm-z-node": "", "networkutils:deg-z-num": "", "networkutils:termination-point-z": "" } } * comes from the portMapping function*. Unidirectional links between xpdr and rdm nodes must be created manually. To that end use the two following REST RPCs: From xpdr to rdm: ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ **REST API** : *POST /restconf/operations/networkutils:init-xpdr-rdm-links* **Sample JSON Data** .. code:: json { "networkutils:input": { "networkutils:links-input": { "networkutils:xpdr-node": "", "networkutils:xpdr-num": "1", "networkutils:network-num": "", "networkutils:rdm-node": "", "networkutils:srg-num": "", "networkutils:termination-point-num": "" } } } From rdm to xpdr: ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ **REST API** : *POST /restconf/operations/networkutils:init-rdm-xpdr-links* **Sample JSON Data** .. code:: json { "networkutils:input": { "networkutils:links-input": { "networkutils:xpdr-node": "", "networkutils:xpdr-num": "1", "networkutils:network-num": "", "networkutils:rdm-node": "", "networkutils:srg-num": "", "networkutils:termination-point-num": "" } } } OTN topology ~~~~~~~~~~~~ Before creating an OTN service, your topology must contain at least two xpdr devices of MUXPDR or SWITCH type connected to two different rdm devices. To check that these xpdr are present in the OTN topology, use the following command on the REST API : **REST API** : *GET /restconf/config/ietf-network:network/otn-topology* An optical connectivity service shall have been created in a first setp. Since Magnesium SR2, the OTN links are automatically populated in the topology after the Och, OTU4 and ODU4 interfaces have been created on the two network ports of the xpdr. Creating a service ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Use the *service handler* module to create any end-to-end connectivity service on an OpenROADM network. Two kind of end-to-end "optical" services are managed by TransportPCE: - 100GE service from client port to client port of two transponders (TPDR) - Optical Channel (OC) service from client add/drop port (PP port of SRG) to client add/drop port of two ROADMs. For these services, TransportPCE automatically invokes *renderer* module to create all required interfaces and cross-connection on each device supporting the service. As an example, the creation of a 100GE service implies among other things, the creation of OCH, OTU4 and ODU4 interfaces on the Network port of TPDR devices. Since Magnesium SR2, the *service handler* module directly manages some end-to-end otn connectivity services. Before creating a low-order OTN service (1GE or 10GE services terminating on client port of MUXPDR or SWITCH), the user must ensure that a high-order ODU4 container exists and has previously been configured (it means structured to support low-order otn services) to support low-order OTN containers. Thus, OTN service creation implies three steps: 1. OCH-OTU4 service from network port to network port of two OTN Xponders (MUXPDR or SWITCH) 2. HO-ODU4 service from network port to network port of two OTN Xponders (MUXPDR or SWITCH) 3. 10GE service creation from client port to client port of two OTN Xponders (MUXPDR or SWITCH) The management of other OTN services (1GE-ODU0, 100GE...) is planned for future releases. 100GE service creation ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Use the following REST RPC to invoke *service handler* module in order to create a bidirectional end-to-end optical connectivity service between two xpdr over an optical network composed of rdm nodes. **REST API** : *POST /restconf/operations/org-openroadm-service:service-create* **Sample JSON Data** .. code:: json { "input": { "sdnc-request-header": { "request-id": "request-1", "rpc-action": "service-create", "request-system-id": "appname" }, "service-name": "test1", "common-id": "commonId", "connection-type": "service", "service-a-end": { "service-rate": "100", "node-id": "", "service-format": "Ethernet", "clli": "", "tx-direction": { "port": { "port-device-name": "", "port-type": "fixed", "port-name": "", "port-rack": "000000.00", "port-shelf": "Chassis#1" }, "lgx": { "lgx-device-name": "Some lgx-device-name", "lgx-port-name": "Some lgx-port-name", "lgx-port-rack": "000000.00", "lgx-port-shelf": "00" } }, "rx-direction": { "port": { "port-device-name": "", "port-type": "fixed", "port-name": "", "port-rack": "000000.00", "port-shelf": "Chassis#1" }, "lgx": { "lgx-device-name": "Some lgx-device-name", "lgx-port-name": "Some lgx-port-name", "lgx-port-rack": "000000.00", "lgx-port-shelf": "00" } }, "optic-type": "gray" }, "service-z-end": { "service-rate": "100", "node-id": "", "service-format": "Ethernet", "clli": "", "tx-direction": { "port": { "port-device-name": "", "port-type": "fixed", "port-name": "", "port-rack": "000000.00", "port-shelf": "Chassis#1" }, "lgx": { "lgx-device-name": "Some lgx-device-name", "lgx-port-name": "Some lgx-port-name", "lgx-port-rack": "000000.00", "lgx-port-shelf": "00" } }, "rx-direction": { "port": { "port-device-name": "", "port-type": "fixed", "port-name": "", "port-rack": "000000.00", "port-shelf": "Chassis#1" }, "lgx": { "lgx-device-name": "Some lgx-device-name", "lgx-port-name": "Some lgx-port-name", "lgx-port-rack": "000000.00", "lgx-port-shelf": "00" } }, "optic-type": "gray" }, "due-date": "yyyy-mm-ddT00:00:01Z", "operator-contact": "some-contact-info" } } Most important parameters for this REST RPC are the identification of the two physical client ports on xpdr nodes.This RPC invokes the *PCE* module to compute a path over the *openroadm-topology* and then invokes *renderer* and *OLM* to implement the end-to-end path into the devices.
