The aim of this work is to present provisioning strategies for GMPLS-enabled Hybrid Photonic Networks (HPN). Contributing to network flexibility, the paper presents extensions to the management system of these transparent wavelength and switching capable networks that provide the means to leverage their inherent capabilities.

The paper first addresses the motivation and utility of HPN. Building on this information, it goes on with the constraints to be applied in provisioning of those networks. Finally, to achieve the strategic goal of provisioning, a protocol independent Policy-based Management (PBM) approach is proposed with the corresponding policy control framework and relevant policy categories.
