In modern packet-optical transport networks, architecture is key to achieving efficiency, security, and scalability. The ALLEGRO architecture stands out by harmonizing three critical planes:
🔹 Control Plane
Responsible for managing and controlling network operations. It handles configuration, provisioning, routing, and signaling, ensuring seamless interaction between network elements like routers and switches.
🔹 Data Plane
Focused on the transmission of user traffic, this plane handles the actual forwarding of data packets across the network.
🔹 Security Plane
Transversal to both the control and data planes, the security plane plays a pivotal role. It manages authentication, encryption, and key distribution, ensuring the integrity of network communications. Its bidirectional interaction with the control plane facilitates secure communications while extending authentication and encryption functionalities to the data plane when required.
With ALLEGRO, we’re redefining how these planes interact to deliver robust, secure, and efficient networking solutions.
💡 Let’s shape the future of network architecture together!
