  • Abstract
    Very little work has been carried out so far in the area of operation and maintenance (OAM) schemes for optical bursts switched (OBS) networks. We continue to discuss OAM issues for OBS networks. The spectral and temporal de-coupling of data and control in an OBS network calls for special OAM attention. In this paper, OAM procedures, functions and sessions based on specific network and node architectures are discussed. An OAM information model, encompassing OAM-specific packet/burst formats is also presented.
