Abstract

Systems and methods for path computation in an optical network include obtaining optical layer characteristics related to one or more optical paths in the optical network based in part on performance measurements in the optical network; responsive to service establishment or service restoration, determining a path from source to destination based on utilizing the optical layer characteristics to confirm physical validity of the path; and provisioning a service on the determined path from the source to the destination in the optical network.
