I think another key difference is that a GOLE has a high concentration of cross-border fibers which includes those that interconnects to other GOLEs. In my opinion distinguishing a GOLE from a domain is useful for path computation. Also, we rarely find termination (compute, instrument, etc. ) points within GOLEs. Therefore, their function is to primarily interconnect to other domains and GOLEs. Thanks, Gigi Victor Reijs (work) wrote:
Hello Freek and Erik-Jan,

The only distinction between a GOLE and an other domain is that a GOLE is it's policy: a GOLE is "open" and will thus not define a policy on its own (it may enforce the policy of connected domains, though).
But if 'policy' is an attribute of a domain, then that is even no difference (at least looking at the abstract level). Correct?
All the best,
