DYNAMIC ALLOCATION AND VIRTUALIZATION OF NETWORK RESOURCES IN THE ACCESS NETWORK AND IN CUSTOMER NETWORKS

摘要

A method of dynamically allocating network resources in an access network and a customer network includes: determining, by a control unit, positions of all users of the customer network; bringing, by the control unit, the customer network and/or a component of the customer network into a first predefined state, based on determining that no user of the customer network is checked in to the customer network; and reallocating, by the control unit, an access port of an access multiplexer assigned to the customer network to an access network resource pool, based on determining that no user of the customer network is checked in to the customer network.
