Release Notes for Cisco Routed Optical Networking Solution, Release 1.0
The release notes provide an overview of the Routed Optical Networking solution and its features. It also lists the caveats.
Routed Optical Networking Overview
With the introduction of Routed Optical Networking, networks see improvements in service agility. Routed Optical Networking simplifies the complex multilayer architecture by converging the layers together and minimizing functional overlaps between layers.
Routed Optical Networking is able to provide improvements and simplification as Routed Optical Networking:
-
Leverages state of the art optical and routing technologies to converge services over an IP infrastructure that is connected by a simplified DWDM layer.
-
Simplifies end-to-end network architecture.
-
Utilizes a modern software stack that spans across network management and control planes.
-
Improves the capacity and cost efficiency of the networks.
-
Has a smaller carbon footprint.
-
Offers unified capacity planning, unified EMS, unified path optimization, orchestration, and assurance.
-
Provides an automation ecosystem with open, programmable, and modular components.
-
Total Cost of Ownership savings across CapEx and OpEx.
Routed optical networking utilizes high-density routers, high-capacity ZR or ZR+ digital coherent optics, simpler DWDM line systems, telemetry software, and end-to-end automation to create next generation networks.

|
|
IOS-XR 7.4.1 |
Support for QDD-400G-ZR-S and QDD-400G-ZRP-S on the following hardware:
|
|
Optical line system |
Support for:
|
|
NETCONF and YANG ZR/ZR+ Programmability |
Support for NETCONF and YANG models. NETCONF is a standard based and XML encoded protocol. You can use YANG to create device configuration requests or the requests for operational data. |
|
Telemetry |
Support for telemetry data. Model-driven telemetry allows network devices to continuously stream real-time configuration and operating state information to subscribers. |
|
Cisco Evolved Programmable Network Manager 5.1.3 |
Support for QDD-400G-ZR-S and QDD-400G-ZRP-S optics on Release 1.0 platforms. It also displays optical performance monitoring and fault data. |
|
Crosswork Hierarchical Controller 5.1 |
CNC and Crosswork Hierarchical Controller integration is supported for hierarchical multi-vendor, multi-domain, and multi-layer visualization across service, IP and, optical layers for new deployments and deployments on existing networks. Crosswork Hierarchical Controller supports:
|
|
Cisco Optical Network Controller 1.1 |
Support for QDD-400G-ZR-S and QDD-400G-ZRP-S wavelength services on Cisco NCS 2000 devices Cisco Optical Network Controller (Cisco ONC) is an optical domain controller. Cisco ONC supports a standardized TAPI model. |
|
Cisco Crosswork Network Controller 3.0 |
Cisco Crosswork Network Controller (CNC) is a network automation solution for deploying and operating IP transport networks. Its unified user interface allows real-time visualization of the network topology and services, as well as service and transport provisioning. CNC is the IP domain controller. |
|
NSO Routed Optical Networking Core Function Pack 1.0 |
Support for unified IP and optical provisioning for Cisco routers using QDD-400G-ZR-S and QDD-400G-ZRP-S optics and NCS 2000 optical line systems. |
|
Cisco Optical Network Planner 4.2 |
Support for designing and validating networks of the NCS 2000 series. Cisco ONP must be used to perform the final network feasibility analysis and generate production network designs. |
|
CiscoWAN Automation Engine 7.5.0 |
Support for creating and maintaining a model of the current network through the continual monitoring and analysis of the network and the traffic demands that are placed on it. This tool is used for IP planning. |
