A method of synchronizing state of a Label Switched Path (LSP) of a Generalized Multiprotocol Label Switching (GMPLS) based optical communication network with that of a data plane of the network is disclosed. The method includes: receiving, at a network device, Resource ReserVation Protocol (RSVP) path objects that include at least one private object, wherein the at least one private object carries information that enables control plane of the network to synchronize at least one node downstream of the LSP; and synchronizing, using the network device, the state of the LSP with state of the data plane based on the at least one private object. The at least one private object can include one or more specific structures that enable the at least one node to uniquely identify and program equipment operatively connected with the at least one node.
A method of synchronizing state of a Label Switched Path (LSP) of a Generalized Multiprotocol Label Switching (GMPLS) based optical communication network with that of a data plane of the network, said method comprising:
A network device configured in a Generalized Multiprotocol Label Switching (GMPLS) based optical communication network having a Label Switched Path (LSP), said network device comprising one or more processors coupled with a memory, the memory storing instructions executable by the one or more processors to:
