Abstract :
In this paper we assess the sensitivity of the most important topological parameters of an all-IP network with WDM transport planes with respect to a capital expenditure (CAPEX) optimization. We consider conservative and progressive traffic growth scenarios applied to several access network architectures in an effort to identify optimum metro and core router locations.
