As shown the topology contains 6 packet nodes in upper plane, and 10 optical nodes in the lower plane.  

Each packet node is attached to a host designated as data centerrepresenting a data center.  The traffic is typically initiated from Hosts attached to the packet networks. 

Note that there is no physical links between the packet nodes.  All traffic sourced at the data centers are routed through the optical plane. 

The optical plane represents the physical network infrastructure interconnected via ROADMs, and packet network are interconnected via logical links only when a circuit is established through 

physical layer.  

 

The tap interfaces are used to interconnect the optical switches and packet nodes. We are utilizing linux tap interfaces for interconnecting the optical switches and packet switches
