Rather than there being a requirement that specific instructions be issued to cause a transport network tunnel to be configured, it is proposed herein to have a transport node autonomously determine that a transport network tunnel is to be configured and, responsively, cause the transport network tunnel to be configured. In general, a transport node (an L0/L1 device) adjacent to the packet device at the origin of LACP messages snoops on the LACP messages. The transport node may determine, based on the contents of a control LACP message, that a new packet network link is to be established between the origin packet device and a destination packet device. Responsive to the determining, the transport node adjacent to the origin packet device causes a transport network tunnel to be established between one of its ports and a port at a transport node adjacent the destination packet device. |
