Abstract

Abstract. Accurate cross-layer associations play an essential role in today’s network management tasks such as backbone planning, maintenance, and failure diagnosis. Current techniques for manually maintaining these associations are complex, tedious, and error prone. One possible approach is to widen the interfaces between layers to support auto discovery. We argue instead that it is less useful to export additional data between layers than to import information into a separate management plane. The specification of a management interface enables independent evolution of individual layers, side-stepping the challenges inherent in wide layer interfaces. Further, the management plane can leverage network-wide crosslayer visibility to provide enhanced services that depend on physical- or link-layer diversity. 1
