Chapter 22: Optical Network Security
Abstract
Fault and attack survivability issues concerning security in all optical networks require a new approach that takes into consideration the physical characteristics of optical networks. Furthermore, unlike the case in which electronic networks regenerate signals at every node, attack detection and isolation schemes may not have access to the overhead bits used to transport supervisory information between regenerators or switching sites to perform their functions. This chapter presents an analysis of attack and protection problems in optical networks. It also proposes a conceptual framework for modeling attack problems and protection ...
