Summary:A technique for transmitting an optical signal along an optical wavelength path through an optical network having a plurality of network nodes is disclosed. In one particular exemplary embodiment, the technique may be realized as a method for transmitting an optical signal along an optical wavelength path through an optical network having a plurality of network nodes. Such a method may comprise transmitting a first message from a first node to a second node requesting an optical wavelength path from the first node to at least the second node, and simultaneously configuring the first node for transmitting an optical signal along the optical wavelength path from the first node to the second node.
