    摘要: A method and system for reserving a virtual connection from a source workstation to a destination workstation. Packets of data are transmitted over a network between an ingress node of the source workstation and an egress node of the destination workstation. In accordance with the method of the present invention, a reservation request is delivered from the source workstation to a reservation server. The reservation server includes a user database for storing the identification of each user allowed to access to the reservation server and also stores the rights of each user. The reservation server further includes a network database for storing the information describing a network capacity required to set up the virtual connection. A verification is then performed to determine whether or not the reservation request may be validated in view of user information within said source workstation. A second verification is performed to determine whether or not the capacity of said network is sufficient to meet the requirements of the reservation request. In response to the capacity of the network being sufficient to meet the requirements of the reservation request, a virtual connection is established from the ingress node to the egress node.

    摘要: A system for providing prioritized queue management within a data transmission network node that supports different types of data frame traffic is disclosed herein. The system includes a frame buffer for storing an incoming frame that has an identifiable frame type. A queue is pre-associated with the frame type of the incoming frame such that upon arrival of the frame at the network node, the queue stores a location address at which the frame is stored within the frame buffer such that the frame is maintained within the queue. The queue that contains the frame is stored within a frame table. Processing means are provided for determining a time at which the queue forwards the frame from the frame buffer in accordance with a pre-determined sub-queue priority list. The system further includes time metering means associated with the frame for temporally assigning the frame to a virtual sub-queue among multiple virtual sub-queues that are associated with the queue. The sub-queues are sequentially ordered according to the predetermined sub-queue priority list such that the processing means selects a highest priority frame for forwarding from the frame buffer.

    摘要: A method for operating a node in a computer network is disclosed, where the network is made up of nodes connected by links. The method has the steps: determining an alternate path for one or more links; reserving resources for the alternate path; and rerouting traffic on the alternate path in case of a link failure. The alternate path may be periodically updated. A plurality of alternate paths may be maintained. The alternate paths may not have any links in common. User traffic may be rerouted substantially simultaneously to each link of the alternate path in the event of failure of a primary path.

    摘要: A method and a system of network capacity planning for use in a high speed packet switching network. The network comprises a plurality of switching nodes interconnected through a plurality of communication links, each of the switching nodes comprises means for switching packets from at least one input link to at least one output link. Each of the output links is coupled to at least one buffer in the switching node for queuing packets before they are transmitted over the output link. In each of the switching nodes and for each of the output links, a time distribution of the occupancy of each buffer during a predetermined monitoring time period is measured, and stored in a centralized memory location. Then, the buffer occupancy time distribution data are retrieved from the centralized memory location in all the switching nodes, gathered and stored in a network dedicated server. These buffer occupancy time distribution data for all the nodes are transmitted from the dedicated network server to a network monitoring center. In the network monitoring center, the buffer occupancy time distribution data are integrated on a larger time scale, and stored. Finally, the integrated buffer occupancy time distribution data are used to apply network capacity planning actions to the network resources.
