摘要： An optical network includes at least one Level 1 network that includes a number of interconnection nodes and one or more Level 2 networks that each include one or more access nodes. The one or more Level 2 networks are each coupled to the Level 1 network via at least one interconnection node.

摘要： A communication system includes in-band networks, out-of-band (OOB) networks, and translating nodes. In-band data is communicated in the in-band networks in a shared channel and routed based on a destination address specified by in-band control information that is also communicated in the same shared channel as the data. OOB data is communicated in the OOB networks in an OOB data channel and routed based on control information communicated in an OOB control channel, the OOB control channel being a different channel from the OOB data channel on which the OOB data is transmitted. Translating nodes couple the OOB networks and in-band networks and are capable of translating in-band control data and in-band control information for communication in the OOB networks. The translating nodes are also capable of translating OOB control information and OOB data for communication in the in-band networks.
