Failure restoration method in a mesh network

摘要

A method for constructing a network capable of self-healing from failure in a mesh network and a restoration algorithm are provided. A logical ring is set for each closed loop in the network, and when a failure occurs, the affected traffic is re-routed in the each logical ring toward the opposite direction away from the failure to restore the failed network. The network is divided into a plurality of logical rings to establish the restoration route so that time required for the restoration is shortened.
