Abstract
Systems and methods for a multi-layer network to achieve network resource isolation among clients using the same server network, such as a VPN in a multi-layered network and interaction within the node, may include interaction between a server layer (e.g. LPhotonic network) and the client layer (e.g. Lnetwork) that help the client layer (L) gather information about the server-layer (L) connection affinities. For example, the use of server layer (L) connection affinities to construct Virtual Network Topologies (VNT) and/or network abstractions for customer traffic isolations in client layer (L), the use of VNT to offer physical and/or logical network resource isolation for Lcustomers, and provide LVPN services in a multi-layer environment.
