Abstract
In this paper, a GMPLS controlled core network model that takes energy efficiency into account is built using OPNET MODELER. By extending the standard GMPLS routing protocol -- OSPF-TE, we are able to spread desired energy related information over the local area, and subsequently use RSVP-TE for connection setup. The OSPF designing process of the simulation model is given in details, including necessary simplifications to enable a fast implementation while keeping the key characteristics of the GMPLS protocol behaviors. The efficiency of the proposed extensions are analyzed, and improved energy efficiency is shown through the results collected from OPNET MODELER simulation models.
