摘要 |
The present invention relates to the communications field, and discloses a method for fault detection and convergence in an Ethernet as well as a node device. The method includes: detecting a link fault according to the OAM protocol; and performing network convergence by using a Layer 2 network protection protocol according to the type of Ethernet after the link fault is detected. The node device includes a detecting module and a converging module. In the embodiments of the present invention, a link fault is detected through the Ethernet OAM; after the link fault is detected, a protection switching protocol is used to perform network convergence, thus increasing the rate of fault detection in the Ethernet.
