Abstract:
Provided are a method, a system and a node for implementing APS in an OBRing network. The method comprises: a master node and a slave node separately perform optical power monitoring on respective channels, and aggregate monitoring results to the master node; when determining, according to the monitoring results, that a fault occurs, the master node sends a switching operation instruction to the slave node; and the slave node performs a switching operation and enters a protection working state. With the disclosure, a protection switching mechanism is introduced to the OBRing, which implements the processing on fault and ensures the communication quality of the OBRing.
