Abstract

Systems and methods for tunneling GCC0 bytes over an OTN transport network are disclosed. The method includes receiving, at a first network element, a first data frame comprising a set of management bytes and a set of data bytes, determining whether the set of management bytes should be tunneled, and, in response to determining that the management bytes should be tunneled, sending, to a second network element, a second data frame comprising the set of management bytes and the set of data bytes.
