The method involves receiving a signaling message (RESV) at a conversion-regeneration node (N1), where the signaling message comprises a set of identifiers of wavelength channels (L1-L4) representing the wavelength channel to be allocated to a connection between the conversion and regeneration node and a upstream neighbor node. The signaling message comprises regeneration instructions associated with a path node of the connection and to cause the regeneration of an optical signal of the connection by each node associated to the regeneration instructions. Independent claims are also included for the following: (1) a computer program comprising a set of instructions for implementing a method for establishing a connection along a path in an optical network (2) a device for controlling an optical switching conversion-regeneration node, comprising units for implementing a method for establishing a connection along a path in an optical network. |
