Optical label switched networks: laboratory trial and network emulator in the IST-STOLAS project

This article reviews the performance of an optical-label-controlled packet routing node as implemented in the European FP5-IST STOLAS project including a set of general engineering rules. Experimental networking scenarios and results from a STOLAS based network emulator supporting optical overspill routing are presented
