   As OTN network capabilities continue to evolve, there is an increased
   need to support GMPLS control for the same. [RFC4328] introduced
   GMPLS signaling extensions for supporting early version of G.709
   [G.709-v1].The basic routing considerations from signaling
   perspective is also specified in [RFC4328].

   The recent revision of ITU-T Recommendation G.709 [G.709-v3] and
   [GSUP.43] have introduced new ODU containers (both fixed and
   flexible) and additional ODU multiplexing capabilities, enabling
   support for optimal service aggregation.

   This document extends [RFC4328] to provide GMPLS signaling support
   for the new OTN capabilities defined in [G.709-v3] and [GSUP.43]. The
   signaling extensions described in this document caters to ODU layer
   switching only. Optical Channel Layer switching considerations in
   [RFC4328] are not modified in this document.
