Abstract :
We perform the dimensioning of a set of realistic optical networks with and without knowledge of the network topology. Results are compared regarding transmission systems and bandwidth management costs, and the average error is calculated. We found that the lack of information about the network topology does not penalize substantially the accuracy of the results.
