Title: Establishment of VLAN Tag Swapped Path on GMPLS Controlling Wide Area Layer-2 Network

Author: Kou Kikuta, Masahiro Nishida, Daisuke Ishii, Satoru Okamoto, Naoaki Yamanaka

Abstract: GMPLS controlled multi-domain end-to-end layer-2 path establishment with VLAN tag swapping is demonstrated. Two kinds of signaling　mechanisms to realize tag swapping are implemented on prototype layer-2　switch systems and both mechanisms are evaluated.
