Introduction
ODTN (Open and Disaggregated Transport Networks) is an ONF project that aims to rally service providers, hardware vendors and system integrators, to
- Build a reference implementation using (a) open source software, (b) open and common data models, and (c) disaggregated hardware devices.
- Perform lab and field trials using the reference implementation.
- Identify supply chain gaps and propose solutions.
The project's scope covers:
1. Disaggregated DWDM systems, including but not limited to transponders and Open Line Systems, amplifiers, multiplexers, all-optical switches and ROADMs
2. Open source network operating system for control and configuration of the DWDM system
3. Open and common data models, APIs and protocols
Much of this information is captured in the project charter.

Deliverables and Timeline
The project will produce two deliverables:
- Point to point solution (Q3 2018)
- Meshed ROADM solution (Q2 2019)
Each delivered solution will consist of the following elements:
- Reference implementation composed of complete open source software stack, set of applications, and device drivers
- Integration report detailing measured, expected and potential gaps for performance levels and feature sets. Of particular interest are limitations brought about by multi-vendor environment.
- Detailed plan for operator-led deployment (lab or field trial), including system design, gap analysis, vendor selection, and resource commitments.
Teams
We have identified four teams to drive the actual work in this project, along with an overseeing project management team. Please refer to individual team pages using the sidebar on the left.
