According to an aspect, the protection switching method includes: at a first node on the Ethernet ring network, detecting link failure; at the first node, determining whether a port through which a protection switching message has to be transmitted is on a forwarding path; and at the first node, generating a protection switching message based on the result of the determination; and at the first node, transmitting the protection switching message. |
