<p>A method for augmenting a telecommunications network is proposed, whereby
- an augmentation is prepared by:
- determining the services which would be interrupted due to the addition of a network element (nNE) to a current network,
- determining a temporary route (AR) around the at least one affected service,
- defining a new route by identifying the ports of at least one new network element to be added to the current network and by identifying the ports of the network elements (NE1, NE2, NE3) to be connected to the new network element,
- the network is physically augmented by:
- enabling the temporary route,
- adding the new network element physically to the current network, thus creating a physically augmented network,
- disabling the temporary route,
- enabling the new route.</p> |
