摘要： Ethernet nodes, interconnected logically or physically to construct a closed loop, may be controlled using a control protocol that governs placement of blocks on the ring. The control protocol allows one of the nodes to be designated as a root node in normal operation. The root node will block data traffic on one of its ports on the ring to prevent a forwarding loop from being created on the ring. Each node on the ring performs link level connectivity detection and, upon detection of a failure, will send out a Failure Indication Message (FIM). When a node receives a FIM, it will flush its forwarding database associated with the ring and, if it is the root node, will remove the data block on the port. When the failure recovers, the nodes adjacent the failure will transmit a recovery indication message to allow the ring to revert to its normal state.
摘要翻译：可以使用控制环上的块的放置的控制协议来控制在逻辑或物理上互连以构造闭环的以太网节点。控制协议允许在正常操作中将其中一个节点指定为根节点。根节点将阻止环上的一个端口上的数据流量，以防止在环上创建转发环路。环上的每个节点执行链路级连接检测，并且在检测到故障时将发送故障指示消息（FIM）。当节点接收到FIM时，它将刷新与环相关联的转发数据库，如果是根节点，将删除端口上的数据块。当故障恢复时，与故障相邻的节点将发送恢复指示消息，以允许环恢复到其正常状态。

摘要： The present disclosure provides protection systems and methods that provide a mechanism to identify/determine when an interconnection node has been isolated (i.e. when there is no connectivity between a pair of interconnection nodes), from a data path perspective. If/when this condition exists, actions are triggered on the subtending sub-ring that essentially perform a protection switch (which causes the subtending sub-ring nodes to cleanse their forwarding tables), and, more importantly, that remove any channel blocks on the subtending sub-ring. Extensions to the ITU-T G.8032 state machine are also provided that include support for operator command interactions (e.g. DNR, force switch, manual switch, etc.). The protection systems and methods of the present disclosure enable the reliable application of ITU-T G.8032 and the like to more complex (i.e. meshed) deployment environments, among other significant advantages.

摘要： A method of enabling a resilient interface between a first node and a G.8032 Ethernet ring. A Link Aggregation Group (LAG) comprising respective links is provided between the first node and at least two ring nodes of the Ethernet ring. An aggregation function is instantiated at the first node, for distributing subscriber traffic to the links of the LAG in a conventional manner. A first one of the ring nodes is designated as Active, and each of the other ones of the ring nodes are designated as Inactive. At each Inactive ring node, a logical block is imposed on its respective link of the LAG, such that subscriber traffic between the first node and the Ethernet ring is routed by the aggregation function only through the respective link between the first node and the Active ring node.

摘要： Systems and methods with dynamic Connectivity Fault Management (CFM) and Continuity Check Messages (CCMs) that enable dynamic configurations to avoid limitations associated with static reconfigurations. Variously, a network, a method, and a network element are configured to implement a dynamic CFM method for dynamic notifications and actions taken based thereon between Maintenance End Points (MEPs). The systems and methods may also include a CCM attribute adjustment method between two MEPs, a CCM suspension and/or resumption method between two MEPs, and a MEP auto-discovery and leaving method. Advantageously, the systems and methods may be utilized in a variety of contexts including controlled maintenance, in-service software upgrades, network congestion, discovery of new remote MEPs, and the like to enable dynamic configurations between MEPs. The systems and methods may also apply to Carrier Ethernet, Multiprotocol Label Switching-Transport Profile (MPLS-TP), and the like.

摘要： To enable an Ethernet ring to be dual homed into a spanning tree protocol controlled Ethernet network, spanning tree control packets (Bridged Protocol Data Units or BPDUs) are transported as data frames over the Ethernet ring. This allows the Ethernet ring to appear as a single link to the spanning tree protocol so that the spanning tree can extend over the link. However, since the spanning tree does not have visibility as to the internal structure of the ring, the spanning tree cannot block links on the Ethernet ring network. Conversely, BPDUs from the Ethernet ring are not transmitted into the Ethernet domain that is implementing the spanning tree, so that the spanning tree is not affected by the control mechanism in place on the Ethernet ring network.
摘要翻译：为了使以太网环双重归属到生成树协议控制的以太网，生成树控制报文（桥接协议数据单元或BPDU）通过以太网环路作为数据帧传输。这允许以太网环显示为生成树协议的单个链路，以便生成树可以在链路上延伸。然而，由于生成树对环的内部结构没有可见性，所以生成树不能阻塞以太网环网上的链路。相反，来自以太网环的BPDU不会传输到实现生成树的以太网域中，生成树不受以太网环网上的控制机制的影响。

摘要： A resilient virtual Ethernet ring has nodes interconnected by working and protection paths. If a span fails, the two nodes immediately on either side of the failure are cross-connected to fold the ring. Working-path traffic is cross-connected onto the protection path at the first of the two nodes and is then cross-connected back onto the working path at the second of the two nodes so that traffic always ingresses and egresses the ring from the working path. A traffic originating node, upon determining that transmitted packets are being looped back due to a fault on a primary path, is adapted to switch transmission of data packets from the primary path to a secondary path.
