CONTROL ORCHESTRATION PROTOCOL (COP)

Overview

The Control Orchestration Procotol (COP) abstracts a set of control plane functions used by an SDN Controller, allowing the interworking of heterogenous control plane paradigms (i.e., OpenFlow, GMPLS/PCE).

The COP is defined using YANG models and RESTCONF. We provide the YANG models and a set of tools to process the YANG models and obtain the necessary classes and interfaces that will support the COP. These tools are:

• Pyang plugin for Swagger
• JSON to Python code generator

COP YANG models

The COP YANG models are available for discussion to research community. Up to now three YANG models have been discussed:

• service-call.yang
• service-topology.yang
• service-path-computation.yang
