摘要:
A loop frame detecting devise includes a frame receiving and transmitting unit and a loop detecting unit. The frame receiving and transmitting unit receives and transmits the Layer 2 frame. The loop detecting unit monitors contents of the frame that is received or to be transmitted by the frame receiving and transmitting unit, determines whether the frame is a loop frame that circulates in the Layer 2 network, detects the loop frame, and minimizes a loop failure.

An abnormal traffic eliminating apparatus eliminates an abnormal traffic that is generated in a network through which frames including a MAC header part, an IP header part and an IP datagram part are transmitted. The apparatus is provided with a write part for writing an FCS field of an MAC frame that is received by a plurality of ports to a search engine part, and a loop monitoring and detecting part counting a number of received MAC frames having identical FCS values and judging that the network is in a loop state if the number of received MAC frames having the identical FCS values and received within a predetermined time exceeds a preset threshold value.

In an inter-ring connection method and device interconnecting a plurality of RPR rings, an inter-ring connecting device (interconnecting station) determines whether or not an RPR frame received from one ring is a broadcast frame; and resets, when the RPR frame determined to be the broadcast frame is relayed to another ring, a ttl of the frame so that a predetermined point between the inter-ring connection device itself and another identical inter-ring connection device opposed within a ring to be relayed is a cleave point. Also, topology information of the one ring is transmitted to another ring; topology information of each ring is held in a topology database; and an RPR frame is relayed (unicasted) between the rings by referring to the topology database based on a destination address of the RPR frame.

A node apparatus in a ring network in which a protection path is provided that cycles around the ring network and transports a signal in a direction opposite to a signal transporting direction of the working path and in the event of a failure of the working path, a node apparatus adjacent to the failure loops back the signal flowing on the working path onto the protection path, the node apparatus comprising: allowable bandwidth storing unit which stores a maximum total bandwidth value, which represents the largest value among per-link total values of bandwidths that a plurality of working paths use on respective links connecting between the node apparatuses, as an allowable bandwidth for a shared path; and bandwidth control unit which controls the bandwidth of traffic flowing on the protection path, in accordance with the allowable bandwidth.

A transmission apparatus includes a processor configured to recognize a number of working failures and a number of protection failures on a network for transmission of wavelength-multiplexed signal light, the number of working failures being the number of failures in signal light in wavelengths at a working entity and the number of protection failures being the number of failures in signal light in wavelengths at a protection entity, configured to perform path switching for each group of signal light in wavelengths that are different from each other and configured to select, when multiple failures occur, restoration processing, on a basis of the number of working failures and the number of protection failures.

摘要:
At a node, a first receiver receives ring information from a first adjacent node. A second receiver receives ring information from a second adjacent node. A first transmitter transmits ring information obtained by adding first local ring information attached between the node and the second adjacent node to the ring information received by the first receiver, to the second adjacent node. A second transmitter transmits ring information obtained by adding second local ring information attached between the node and the first adjacent node to the ring information received by the second receiver, to the first adjacent node.
摘要:
A transmission apparatus arranged on one packet ring connects the packet ring and the other packet ring by performing an acquiring step for acquiring connection information of the other packet ring and the own apparatus and a notifying step for notifying other transmission apparatuses arranged on the packet ring of redundant configuration information indicating a status of the interconnection between the packet ring and the other packet ring, based on the connection information.
摘要:
An apparatus switches paths in a wavelength-multiplexing network in which a first number of wavelengths each used for a path to transmit an optical signal are multiplexed into an optical fiber. The apparatus includes an entire switching unit and a second number of individual switching units where the second number is smaller than the first number. The entire switching unit is configured to perform a path-switching process for switching a path, simultaneously on all the first number of wavelengths when failures have occurred for all the first number of wavelengths. The second number of individual switching units are each configured to perform the path-switching process individually on one of a third number of wavelengths included in the first number of wavelengths when at least one failure has occurred for the third number of wavelengths where the third numbers is smaller than the first number.
