Network model summary
• MPLambdaS is an IP centric control plan
protocol (extended from MPLS) designed
for wavelength-switching in WDM network
• Control plan has fixed topology and it is
strictly separated from data channels
• IP routing protocols (with extension) are
used to distribute the WDM-link state
information

Foundations of this MPS Simulator
• Discrete event driven simulator: NS-2
• Borrowed code from the following free
contributions to NS-2
– MPLS simulator from Gaeil Ahn
– Link state protocol from Mingzhou Sun

MPS simulator implementation
• Improved NS-2 node and link architecture
– Optical crossconnect module
– WDM link module
• Improved LDP to support MPS
– Generalized label
– Support the upstream specified label and ERO
• Improved link-state routing protocol to
support WDM-link information
• Embedded source routing and wavelength
assignment algorithm

Average resource consumption in the
network. The x-axis is the number of
wavelengths available on each link.
The y-axis is the average resource
consumption (link*wavelength).
Traffics are assumed to be random flows, with the constraint that each node can source and sink
no more than 4 flows. Wavelength conversion is possible everywhere. The average network
load is calculated from the average call-holding time over the average inter-arrival time
(4/0.125 = 32 connections).

Setup Failure
When a call comes to a MPLambdaS network, the ingress node calculates the explicit route using LS
information stored in the local LS database. If the local LS information accurately reflects the current
state of the network and there is not enough resource in the network, then the ER computation
algorithm will return a calculation failure. Because of propagation delay and other reasons, LSP setup
and LS flooding takes time. When a node uses obsolete LS information to do ER computation, it may
choose a path that tries to compete for resources with other lightpaths. When this miss calculation
happens, the LDP will still try to setup this lightpath accordingly, but will return a “setup failure”
eventually. This figure show the blocking behavior when average network load is 48 connections.
