METHOD FOR DYNAMIC PACKET-OPTICAL SERVER NETWORK

摘要

A method for reconfiguration of a Label Switched Path(s) (LSP) of a first client of a packet-optical transport network, the packet-optical transport network including a first LSR-user-plane unit, a second LSR user plane unit, and a common control unit, the method comprising: transporting the LSP of the first client directly over a common link to a first network element, the first network element comprising the common control unit, connecting the common link by means of a bypass unit to the first LSR-user-plane unit, wherein the first client exchanges LSP specific control messages with the control unit, and the first client continues to exchange LSP specific control messages with the control unit after the common link with the LSP has been switched over from the first LSR-user-plane unit to the second LSR user plane unit.
