Abstract
In this paper we present a mechanism for obtaining an abstraction of network topology in optical networks in order to compute an end-to-end lightpath across multiple domains in GMPLS networks. We also propose changes to BGP in order to carry the abstracted information. Furthermore we use Opnet to simulate MPLS operation as a special case of GMPLS.
