Abstract
A method implemented by a domain controller in a network comprises transmitting, by a transmitter of the domain controller to a super controller, an update message comprising path information for one or more parallel paths having a common wavelength from a source to a destination, wherein the one or more parallel paths are free of optical impairments when the update message is transmitted to the super controller, receiving, by a receiver of the domain controller from the super controller, an initiate message comprising an identifier of a path selected from the one or more parallel paths, and provisioning, by a processor of the domain controller, the path based on a verification that the path selected by the super controller is free of optical impairments.
