摘要:
A supervisory system for a primary group digital transmission line wherein a terminal repeater transmits, over a supervisory line, address information designating an intermediate repeater and line within the intermediate repeater to be monitored while the line is in a normal, in-service condition. The terminal repeater and intermediate repeaters are cascade connected by way of the supervisory line. The terminal repeater and each of the intermediate repeaters include amplifiers that receive and send information along the transmission line, and have a monitor output. The monitor output is processed by an error monitor within the terminal repeater and in each of the intermediate repeaters and the results of the error monitoring provided to the supervisory line in response to polling by the terminal repeater.

A method for packet forwarding, including receiving packets; extracting a test packet containing information indicating a path to be verified from the received packets; and forwarding the test packet to the path to be verified, rather than to a first path to which the received packets are forwarded, based on the information indicating the path to be verified contained in the test packet.

An optical transmission apparatus connected to an optical ring network stores identification information of an optical transmission apparatus as a communication partner predetermined on a communication path. Each optical transmission apparatus includes self identification information in header information of an optical signal having a working wavelength used in normal operation, and transmits the optical signal to one of the two optical ring networks transferring optical signals in mutually opposite directions. The optical transmission apparatus determines whether the identification information included in the header information of the received optical signal having the working wavelength matches pre-stored identification information. The optical transmission apparatus thus detects a fault that occurs by the communication path. The optical transmission apparatus having detected the fault requests the communication partner to transmit the optical signal on a backup wavelength in the optical ring network opposite in direction to the optical ring network in the normal operation.

A ring network of a multicast label switch path scheme includes a transmitting node and receiving nodes connected to form a ring. A signal input to the transmitting node is branched to be transmitted in first and second different directions to first and second receiving nodes through first and second working paths, respectively, in the ring network. The first and second receiving nodes define terminal points of the first and second working paths, respectively, from the transmitting node. A first backup path is set from the first receiving node to the transmitting node, and a second backup path is set from the second receiving node to the transmitting node. The first backup path is in an opposite direction to the first working path and the second backup path is in an opposite direction to the second working path.

A path switching ring control apparatus is provided for use in a synchronous (SDH) network, and in particular for the purpose of repairing a fault which occurs in an asynchronous (PDH) subnetwork contained therein, this apparatus having a transmission alarm detection section which monitors the input PDH signal and generates a transmission alarm signal when a degradation of the quality thereof is detected, a path overhead generation section which generates the path overhead information of the transmission alarm signal from the transmission alarm detection section, and a path overhead insertion section which inserts the overhead information generated by the path overhead generation section into an SDH signal after the mapping thereof.
摘要:
A line interface circuit on the receiving side detects communication failure in terms of an error rate and informs the supervisory and control unit on the receiving side of the occurrence of the failure. The supervisory and control unit on the receiving side in turn switches the line data communications from the receiving side to the transmitting side to another line unused for data communications to inform the supervisory and control unit on the transmitting side of the occurrence of the failure. The supervisory and control unit on the transmitting side switches the line for data communications from the transmitting side to the receiving side to the other line. The switching circuit on the receiving side comprises buffers each inserted in a line and a buffer connected to the common outputs of the buffers so that the supervisory and control unit on the receiving side automatically receives a transmit signal transmitted over a line switched on the transmitting side.

A communication network system includes a processor, and a plurality of node apparatuses using a protocol to establish paths therebetween, wherein the processor determines each of the node apparatuses to be a packet source or a packet destination, and operates to detect an occurrence of failure in two paths being established between the packet source and the packet destination in the communication network system, and wherein the processor transmits packet data including user data through one of the two paths, and when one of the node apparatuses detects an occurrence of a failure in one of the two paths, the processor changes the path to the other path.
摘要:
A path setting method for setting a backup path corresponding to a currently used path in a ring network using a label switching method includes setting an unused first label as a transmitting label of the backup path corresponding to the currently used path in a first direction; reporting the first label to a adjoining transmission device in the first direction; setting the first label as a receiving label of the backup path in the first direction; setting an unused second label as the transmitting label of the backup path in a second direction; reporting the second label to a adjoining transmission device in the second direction; and setting the second label as the receiving label of the backup path in the second direction, in which the backup path is set when the currently used path is set between two transmission devices.

A system enabling inter-ring network connection when a plurality of ring networks are connected via a redundancy network, that is, a packet network system configured by a plurality of ring networks and redundancy networks linking the plurality of ring networks. This system virtually defines a plurality of virtual resilient packet ring networks among all of these packet networks and transfers packets on a designated virtual resilient packet ring network. Here, each virtual resilient packet ring network is identified by a virtual resilient packet ring network identifier allocated to each.
