scope:
This Recommendation specifies the architecture and requirements for software defined networking (SDN) control of transport networks, consistent with the principles of SDN and complementary to SDN related work in SG11, SG13 and SG17. This architecture is applicable to both connection-oriented circuit and packet transport networks.
The reference architecture describes SDN control of transport networks in terms of abstract control components that are used for manipulating transport network resources in order to provide the desired functionality. These components represent abstract entities rather than instances of implementable software and use UML-like notation
