Performance analysis of integer linear programming optical monitor placement for crosstalk attack detection in different network topologies

In this paper, an optimum optical power monitor placement is formulated in integer linear programming for crosstalk attack detection by exploiting monitoring information from test connections. The experimental results showed that equipping 6 out of 14, 8 out of 15 and 8 out of 16 nodes with optical power monitoring devices in NSF, MESH and GRID topologies are enough to detect the nodes that are traversed by the crosstalk attack in the networks.
