Nokia GMPLS-Controlled Optical Networks Questions and Answers
Question 9
What is the Feasibility File in GMRE nodes?
Options:
A.
A file with commissioned GMRE nodes for NPA implementation
B.
A file of optical impairment parameters for power balance
C.
A file with target values that determine whether a given LSP can be routed
D.
A control checklist for the operator
Answer:
C
Explanation:
Explanation:
The Feasibility File is a file that contains a set of target values for various optical impairment parameters, such as OSNR, CD, PMD, and PDL, that are used to determine whether a given LSP can be routed through the GMRE network. The Feasibility File is generated by the Network Planning Application (NPA) based on the network design and the service requirements. The Feasibility File is then loaded into the GMRE nodes and used by the GMPLS routing engine to perform feasibility checks for LSP requests. The Feasibility File ensures that the LSPs are routed in accordance with the network plan and the optical performance criteria12. References:

Question 10
Which provisioning steps arecommon in both CP to plain MP networks?
Options:
A.
Node creation SRG creation Node synchronization CPB power balance
B.
Node creation
CPB provisioning process Link association CPB power balance
C.
Node creation
CPB provisioning process Node synchronization CPB power balance
D.
Node creation
CPB provisioning process Node synchronization NPA implementation
Answer:
C
Explanation:
Explanation:
The provisioning steps that are common in both CP to plain MP networks are node creation, CPB provisioning process, node synchronization, and CPB power balance. These steps are required to create and commission the nodes, provision the cross-connect boards (CPBs), associate the links between the nodes, synchronize the network elements (NEs) with the NFM-T, and balance the power levels of the CPBs.

Question 11
What is the purpose of the Upstream Label Object in RSVP-TE?
Options:
A.
It allows for a label to be suggested to provision bidirectional LSPs.
B.
It signals resource reservation information to upstream nodes.
C.
It allows a node to restrict the labels that may be used downstream.
D.
It indicates the LSP flow direction.
Answer:
A
Explanation:
Explanation:
The Upstream Label Object in RSVP-TE is an optional object that allows a node to suggest a label to its upstream neighbor for the purpose of provisioning bidirectional LSPs. The upstream label object is carried in the Resv message and contains the label value that the node wants to use for receiving traffic from its upstream neighbor. The upstream neighbor can accept or reject the suggested label based on its local policy and resource availability. The upstream label object simplifies the label allocation process for bidirectional LSPs and avoids the need for additional signaling messages.

Question 12
What is the purpose of the RSVP-TE Notify message?
Options:
A.
It is the node's alarm control channel
B.
It is a mechanism to inform the NM5 of L5P events
C.
It is a mechanism to inform non-adjacent nodes of LSP events
D.
It is confirmation of a node's resource reservation
Answer:
C
Explanation:
Explanation:
RSVP-TE Notify message is a message type defined in the RSVP-TE protocol, which is an extension of the RSVP protocol for MPLS traffic engineering. RSVP-TE Notify message is used to inform non-adjacent nodes of LSP events, such as setup, modification, or teardown. This allows the nodes to update their local state information and perform actions based on the notification. For example, a Notify message can be used to trigger a fast reroute mechanism in case of a link or node failure12. References:
