GMPLS |
Also found in: Acronyms | 0.01 sec. |
GMPLS(Generalized Multiprotocol Label Switching) In a WDM optical networking system, it is the ability to route a data transmission based on the wavelength of light that carries it. The routing device only analyzes wavelengths (light frequencies) to make its forwarding decision rather than inspecting fields within each packet. GMPLS adds numerous enhancements to MPLS in order to support optical networks. Originally known as Multiprotocol Lambda Switching, the "L" in the acronym MPLS was the Greek lambda. See MPLS, lambda and WDM. How to thank TFD for its existence? Tell a friend about us, add a link to this page, add the site to iGoogle, or visit webmaster's page for free fun content. |

4) Equipped with GMPLS for a highly reliable network: The GMPLS controlled light network will be connected from Otemachi city in Japan to Chicago between which optical cross connect equipments, OXC will be set up in the various cities. SSM dramatically reduces notification and detection times by leveraging standard GMPLS functions and the near-instantaneous switching speeds of transparent OOO networks. |
