The invention relates to a network element connection management system. The system includes: a subsystem (A) for managing the availability and use of the capacities of resources which offers services for verifying the availability of resources and for reserving said resources, and a topology server application (S) which provides information on the network elements (termination points and their characteristics), said subsystem (A) and said application (S) co-operating via a communication software bus (B), said subsystem for managing the availability and use of resources thus being adapted to offer its services to application programs via said communication bus (B), for example connection path and/or routing management. |
