At least two other possible solutions could be implemented:<br />
1. Destination node can tear down the LSP <strong>and</strong> release the resources by a<br />
ResvTear message.<br />
2. Destination node can request the source node to tear down the LSP<br />
<strong>and</strong> release the resources by a ResvTear message. In this case, a Resv-<br />
Tear message does not change the network state <strong>and</strong> both the cross<br />
connections <strong>and</strong> the resources will be released with the subsequent<br />
PathTear message.<br />
12.4.4 Tests Carried Out<br />
Integration <strong>of</strong> IP <strong>over</strong> WDM: The LION Project Approach 241<br />
The experimental activities that are being carried out in the testbed are focused<br />
basically on interworking aspects investigated in the project <strong>and</strong> divided mainly<br />
into three families <strong>of</strong> tests: ASON/GMPLS functionality, network resilience,<br />
<strong>and</strong> G.709 interfaces capability.<br />
The ASON/GMPLS experiments aim at demonstrating setup/tear down<br />
<strong>of</strong> s<strong>of</strong>t-permanent connections in a multidomain <strong>and</strong> multivendor network by<br />
using NNI signaling.<br />
The assessment <strong>of</strong> both single-layer <strong>and</strong> multilayer resilience tests is<br />
allowed by FRR capability on the IP/MPLS layer <strong>and</strong> by protection <strong>and</strong> restoration<br />
mechanisms on the ASON/GMPLS layer; the interworking between layers<br />
is guaranteed by using hold-<strong>of</strong>f timers on the client layer.<br />
Finally, the G.709 testing is focused on the analysis <strong>of</strong> the performance<br />
monitoring capabilities <strong>of</strong> these interfaces.<br />
