<p>The invention relates to a method for controlling, by a central control entity (200), a topology change in a network having a ring topology with a plurality of ring nodes (110-150) via which data packets of various data transfers are transmitted to their corresponding destination nodes. The method comprising the steps of receiving information about a topology change of the ring topology of the network, determining which of the data transfers are affected by the topology change, determining, for each of the affected data transfers, a new path through the network, determining new switching instructions for ring nodes (110-150) that are affected by the new paths determined for the affected data transfers, and transmitting the new switching instructions to the affected ring nodes (110-150).</p> |
