    摘要: In one embodiment, a network server layer provides disjoint channels in response to client-layer disjoint path requests. For example, the network layer can be an optical network, and the client layer may be a packet switching layer (e.g., label switching, Internet Protocol). In one embodiment, a server-layer node receives a client-layer disjoint path request to provide a server-layer channel through a server-layer network. The client-layer disjoint path request includes an identifier corresponding to an existing client-layer path that traverses a current channel through the server-layer network that does not include the server-layer node. The server-layer network determines a particular channel through the server-layer network that is disjoint to the current channel based on route information of the current channel, and then signaling is performed within the server-layer network to establish the particular channel.

    摘要: In one embodiment, information is exchanged between independent control planes of different layers in a multilayer network, such as, but not limited to, between a packet switching client-layer network and an optical server-layer network. This exchanged information includes signaling regarding a server-layer communications service, having server-layer characteristics, within the server-layer network for use in communicatively coupling at least two devices of the client-layer network. In one embodiment, the client-layer network specifies at least one of these server-layer characteristics that the server-layer communications service provided by the server-layer network must have. In one embodiment, the server-layer network signal to the client-layer network at least one of these server-layer characteristics of the existing server-layer communications service. In one embodiment, this signaling between the client-layer network and the server-layer network includes sending extended Resource Reservation Protocol (RSVP) messages.

    摘要: In one embodiment, a particular device within a client-layer network maintains client-layer topology information including server-layer Shared Risk Link Group (SRLG) information of server-layer devices and links in a server-layer network associated with client-layer links and client-layer nodes in the client-layer network. A determination is made to discover if there is an alternative client-layer path to an established client-layer path between a first packet switching device and a second packet switching device if all server-layer resources of any particular server-layer SRLG of a plurality of total server-layer SRLGs associated with the established client-layer path become unavailable. In one embodiment, the plurality of total server-layer SRLGs includes: an SRLG of a same optical node, an SRLG of a same optical fiber, an SRLG of co-located plurality of optical nodes, and/or an SRLG of co-located plurality of optical fibers.

    摘要: In one embodiment, a device (e.g., a path computation element, PCE) monitors a tunnel set-up failure rate within a computer network, and determines whether to adjust an accuracy of routing information based on the tunnel set-up failure rate. For instance, the tunnel set-up failure rate being above a first threshold indicates a need for greater accuracy. In response to the tunnel set-up failure rate being above the first threshold, the device may then instruct one or more routers to shorten their routing update interval in the computer network.
