摘要:
In an example embodiment, a method and system to provide aggregated alarm indication signals is provided. In example embodiments, an affected intermediate node detects a signal failure. A list of affected networks is determined, and a single aggregated alarm indication signal (AIS) message is generated per MEG level. The aggregated AIS message is then multicast to affected nodes. Instead of sending one AIS message per affected network, a single aggregated AIS message from the affected intermediate node may be generated and sent regardless of the number of affected networks.
摘要:
An example method includes detecting a failure at a first network element, the failure is associated with a link between the first network element and a second network element. The method also includes generating a list of network elements to be notified based on the failure, the second network element is included on the list. The method further includes generating an alarm indication signal (AIS) message, the AIS message identifies a plurality of tunnels affected by the failure. The AIS message is communicated to the second network element. In more detailed embodiments, each link between the first network element and the second network element includes a globally unique link identifier, which includes an associated autonomous system number. The globally unique link identifier can represent a string to be associated with the plurality of tunnels, the globally unique link identifier includes a source address and a destination address.
