A SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR IMPLEMENTING AUTOMATIC DISCOVERY FUNCTION IN DWDM NETWORK

摘要

A system and method for implementing automatic discovery function in DWDM network are provided, and the system includes: an OSC channel, being a bi-directional physical channel for transmitting information through the wavelength independent of the master channel and multiplexing/de-multiplexing with the master channel; a first ASON control unit, being in the first node for interacting with a second ASON control unit in the adjacent second node through the OSC channel to obtain the information of the second ASON control unit; and the second ASON control unit, being in the second node for interacting with the first ASON control unit in the adjacent first node through the OSC channel to obtain the information of the first ASON control unit. Thereby, using the method and system of this invention, the automatic discovery function can be implemented through the OSC channel transmission mechanism.
