Hi All, Hopefully this is the right place to post this question. I'm a routing guy mainly working with ISIS/BGP for my company in our core space. I have an opportunity to get involve with our L2 DWDM network. We are a Cisco shop using NCS2K as DWDM nodes. But before jump into learning the NCS specific stuff, I would like to take a vendor neutral training course in Optical fiber testing with OSA/OTDR, OTN, DWDM signaling, OSNR/dispersion....etc. I think this will help me understand how to build out a DWDM network from ground up. I'm hoping someone I could get into designing network for my company. Thanks in advance, James
Sorry... forgot to mention that I'm looking for recommendation of training courses in this particular area. Thanks, James On Tue, Oct 1, 2019 at 4:21 PM James Chang <traceroute316@gmail.com> wrote:

FiberU (https://fiberu.org) has a lot of decent free training materials. Their emphasis is on physical installation, but they do cover DWDM, Bi-Di, and related physics in some of their videos. If you’re looking for DWDM design and provisioning, you’ll probably have to pay for vendor-specific courses. Here’s the FiberU syllabus that covers optical fiber testing along with DWDM and OTDR. https://fiberu.org/OSP/LP8.html -mel On Oct 1, 2019, at 1:24 PM, James Chang <traceroute316@gmail.com> wrote: Sorry... forgot to mention that I'm looking for recommendation of training courses in this particular area.

Are there really even any significant (i.e. usefully deployed) vendor-neutral mechanisms for DWDM provisioning? All the systems I know of are either vendor-specific or essentially manual. I know there was an effort to generalize the MPLS control plane to this sort of thing (GMPLS), but I'm of the impression that it didn't really take off. -- Brandon Martin
