<p>A ring network of a multicast label switch path scheme includes a transmitting node and receiving nodes connected to form a ring. A signal input to the transmitting node is branched to be transmitted in first and second different directions to first and second receiving nodes through first and second working paths, respectively, in the ring network. The first and second receiving nodes define terminal points of the first and second working paths, respectively, from the transmitting node. A first backup path is set from the first receiving node to the transmitting node, and a second backup path is set from the second receiving node to the transmitting node. The first backup path is in an opposite direction to the first working path and the second backup path is in an opposite direction to the second working path.</p> |
