Abstract

In this article we concentrate on the automated provisioning of inter-AS services based on GMPLS-TE technology. We consider a provider alliance where TE connections are established between the members of the alliance. We propose an efficient and economically feasible architecture for the automatic provisioning of inter-AS GMPLS-TE, based on the introduction of a multidomain service plane coupled with the PCE-based architecture.
