Hi Gyan, Thanks for your interest in this topic, and the introduction of the POI work in CCAMP is helpful.

Does this describe what you are trying to do with SRv6 inter layer programming does seem like POI IP + Optical convergence. [Jie] As described in this draft, POI is one use case of SRv6 inter-layer programming. This work uses the CS-SR Circuit Style SR for provisioning being progressed by Christian Schmutzer which can be over SR-MPLS or SRv6. https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-schmutzer-spring-cs-sr-policy/ [Jie] To my understanding CS-SR is a another story, which is about using SR based packet network to emulate circuit-style connections. There are two new very powerful use cases which are exposed with POI when IP and Optical layers are being converged and that is that now with POI we can p2p DWDM links between router nodes that are now acting as DWDM switch as well with Routed Optical Networking termed "RON" with IP and Optical convergence. These use cases do not exist with legacy Optical OTN with gray optics and external transponders which is one of the major benefits of POI IP+Optical convergence https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/draft-poidt-ccamp-actn-poi-pluggable-usecases-gaps-01 With this work we have tremendous scale as now each p2p link with coherent pluggable optics and now having access to all the layers with IP+Optical with a Hierarchial controller superset controller talking to the IP and Optical layers for provisioning as well as can have very long spans with tweaking of the alien wavelengths and amplitude modulation schemes. With POI a p2p link with each router being a DWDM switch each wavelength could be 100G/400G/800G x 96 wavelengths so a single SMF fiber can now have up to 100G/400G/800G x 96 scalable bandwidth on demand which is applicable to MSDC DCI interconnects and Converged Core transport networks. [Jie] Thanks for sharing the use cases of IP+optical pluggable, I will take a further look at it. I agree this draft could be applicable to the use cases of pluggable, and it can also be applied to other IP and Optical integration cases without pluggable. Best regards, Jie This exists today and is supported by a few vendors but now we are trying to standardize the implementation use cases with coherent pluggable optics with this CCAMP draft.
