Maven Central

This software is a Java Based emulator of a Transport Network. It is based on the emulator of a Transport Node, which can have L1 (OTN) and L0 (fixed grid or flexi-grid DWDM) equipment, that runs a GMPLS based control plane. In particular, it has a OSPF-TE daemon that sends/receives OSPF-TE packets and a RSVP-TE daemon to set-up LSPs. It maintains a PCEP connection with a domain PCE. If used in stateless mode, the PCEP connection is used for path queries. If used in stateful mode, the PCEP connection can be used for remote initiation of LSPs.

For more information and examples, see Netphony GMPLS Emulator Wiki

Compilation and use

The software can be built using the maven tool. To build the .jar file and run the tests, clone the repository, go to the main directory and run:

git clone https://github.com/telefonicaid/netphony-gmpls-emulator.git
cd netphony-gmpls-emulator
mvn install

To use the library in your application, add the dependency in your pom.xml file:

<dependency>
  <groupId>es.tid.netphony</groupId>
  <artifactId>network-emulator</artifactId>
  <version>1.3.3</version>
</dependency>

Authors keep also a copy of the artifact in maven central to facilitate the deployment. Note that, in the develop branch is maintained only in snapshots.

Transport Node Emulator

NodeLauncher is the main class to run a GMPLS Node emulator. It represents a Transport Node with GMPLS capabilities (e.g. an OTN node or a ROADM). It launches the OSPF-TE, RSVP-TE and PCEP necessary connectiosn.

To run the Transport Node Emulator as a standalone application use the class NodeLauncher. You can use maven to create an autoexecutable jar that includes all dependencies in a single file. Plase be aware that you need to start as root.

git clone https://github.com/telefonicaid/netphony-gmpls-emulator.git
cd netphony-gmpls-emulator
mvn clean package -P generate-autojar
cd target
sudo java -jar Emulator-jar-with-dependencies.jar 

Before running, you should configure the parameteres. The parameters are configured in an xml file. By default, if used with NodeLauncher, or it is not specified a file name, XXX.xml should be used. An example of the file is located in examples/xxx.xml (and with the maven assembly build, it is copied in the target directory).
