This heterogeneity is, not only due to the diverse data transmission and switching technologies, but also due to the different options of control plane techniques. In light of this, the problem of heterogeneous control plane interworking needs to be solved, and in particular, the solution must address the specific issues of multi-domain networks, such as limited domain topology visibility, given the scalability and confidentiality constraints. In this article, some of the recent activities regarding the Software-Defined Networking(SDN) orchestration are reviewed to address such a multi-domain control plane interworking problem. Specifically, three different models, including the single SDN controller model, multiple SDN controllers in mesh, and multiple SDN controllers in a hierarchical setting, are presented for the DC interconnection network with multiple SDN/Open Flow domains or multiple Open Flow/Generalized Multi-Protocol Label Switching( GMPLS) heterogeneous domains. I n addition, two concrete implementations of the orchestration architectures are detailed, showing the overall feasibility and procedures of SDN orchestration for the end-to-endservice provisioning in multi-domain data center optical networks.展开更多

On this basis, an active dynamic pre-protection （ADPP） mechanism is proposed. This active dynamic pre-protection mechanism is allowed to establish a so called temporary protection path （TPP） for the work path before a potential fault occurs and to switch to TPP only after the fault occurs. It keeps the TPP flexibly only when it is in low- quality or fault state to realize dynamic protection even better and to achieve better resource utilization. Simulation results show that the proposed new mechanism has better performance in terms of the flexibility and the efficiency from the perspective of time.展开更多
