GMPLS Interworking with Adva Optical ROADMs and Juniper and Cisco Routers

Below is a test network I setup to test GMPLS inter-working between Cisco, Juniper and Adva Optical ROADMs.
From the CLI on the Juniper MX80 you can create a tunnel from the Juniper across the ROADM network to another router. In this case the tuneable DWDM optics were in the ROADMs and grey 10GE optics were used between the routers and the transponder cards.
All the devices, routers and ROADMs must all share the same IGP in this case OSPF to discover the topology and the TE database.
