Abstract
Next generation optical transport networks require a light-weight traffic adaptation mechanism to multiplex low-rating electrical signals into large capacity optical channel The mechanism must be flexible, low complexity and able to support a variety of data signals operating at rates from 10 Mbps to 10 Gbps and beyond. The Generic Framing Procedure (GFP) is an ITU-T/ANSI standard specially designed to fulfill this role. This document provides an overrview of the problem, the procedures and the target applications.
