摘要： Erroneous data due to faults are prevented from propagating through a distributed network node having diversely routed communications links by using a fault masking technique that eliminates the 60 ms of error propagation time associated with SONET networks. The fault masking technique can also prevent random bit errors from propagating through the distributed network node. A frame alignment technique used in the network node is scalable for very wide words (e.g., 128 bits) for use with high speed optical communications protocols, such as OC-192.

摘要： A communication system includes a first ingress content processor that receives information associated with a first traffic type. The first ingress content processor places the information associated with the first traffic type into a system cell having a common system cell format. A second ingress content processor receives information associated with a second traffic type. The second ingress content processor places the information associated with the second traffic type into a system cell having the common system cell format. A switch fabric receives system cells from the first and second ingress content processors. System cells from the first ingress content processor are automatically sent to the switch fabric while system cells from the second ingress content processor are required to be scheduled before being sent to the switch fabric. The switch fabric separately queues system cells carrying payloads associated with the first traffic type from system cells carrying payloads associated with the second traffic type. The switch fabric services system cells carrying payloads associated with the first traffic type prior to servicing system cells carrying payloads associated with the second traffic type.

摘要： A system supports 50 ms protection switching times independent of network architecture. The system includes multiple protection switch fabrics to perform facility protection switching for the signals and a central switch fabric to switch a subset of the signals in a non-facility protection switching manner among the protection switch fabrics. Linear and ring network configurations are supported by the system. The system has flexibility to perform Linear Automatic Protection Switching (LAPS), Unidirection Path Switched Ring (UPSR) protection switching, and Bidirectional Line Switched Ring (BLSR) protection switching without burdening the central switch fabric with unnecessary or redundant traffic.

摘要： Packets used for distributing timing information over a Resilient Packet Ring (RPR) are generated by encoding Synchronization Status Messaging (SSM) messages into IEEE 802.3ah OAM packets (or any other OAM packets, such as those defined in ITU Y.1731). Information indicating the direction that each message is to be transmitted around the RPR ring is also encoded in the packets in either the spare bits of the SSM messages or in the Type-Length-Value (TLV) bytes of the IEEE 802.3ah OAM packets or Y.1731 OAM packets. RPR protection is disabled for the packets carrying the SSM messages and the packets are transmitted to adjacent network nodes in the directions specified by the information encoded in the messages. Information encoded in received packets specifying timing quality and direction of the received messages is observed and compared to determine which timing information included in the messages to use for clock timing.
摘要翻译：用于通过弹性分组环（RPR）分发定时信息的分组是通过将同步状态消息（SSM）消息编码为IEEE 802.3ah OAM分组（或任何其他OAM分组，例如ITU Y.1731中定义的那些）来生成的。指示每个消息围绕RPR环传送的方向的信息也被编码在SSM消息的备用位或IEEE 802.3ah OAM数据包的类型长度值（TLV）字节中的数据包中，或 Y.1731 OAM包。对于携带SSM消息的报文，RPR保护被禁止，并且分组按照消息中编码的信息指定的方向发送到相邻的网络节点。观察并比较指定定时质量和接收到的消息方向的接收分组中编码的信息，以确定包括在用于时钟定时的消息中的定时信息。

摘要： To perform protection switching between tunnels in a network, Y.1731-based APS messages are often sent from a management system to nodes at the tunnels' end-points. If the management system is located near one node (local node) and far away from the other node (remote node), the APS message, which operates at the Ethernet service layer, travels to the remote node slower than traffic over the tunnels. This slower transmission time may prevent the remote node from performing a switch within a desired timeframe. The disclosed embodiments include a 1:1 bidirectional VLAN-based protection arrangement that accomplishes a 50 millisecond switching time without using Y.1731-based APS messages. The embodiments accomplish this by sending a switching command from the management system to the local node and modifying a message already traveling from the local node to the remote node to include a switching message that causes the remote node to perform the switch.
摘要翻译：为了在网络中的隧道之间进行保护切换，基于Y.1731的APS消息通常从管理系统发送到隧道端点的节点。如果管理系统位于一个节点（本地节点）附近并远离另一个节点（远程节点），则在以太网服务层运行的APS消息传播到远程节点比隧道上的流量慢。这种较慢的传输时间可能会阻止远程节点在期望的时间范围内执行切换。所公开的实施例包括在不使用基于Y.1731的APS消息的情况下实现50毫秒切换时间的基于VLAN的基于VLAN的保护布置。这些实施例通过从管理系统向本地节点发送切换命令并修改已经从本地节点传播到远程节点的消息来包括使远程节点执行切换的切换消息来实现。

摘要： A method and corresponding apparatus allows unknown packet traffic, such as Ethernet traffic, to be carried on a Resilient Packet Ring (RPR) network without flooding the traffic on the RPR network. Modules in a station of the ring network compare a destination address in a packet traffic signal with known addresses and associate an identifier of a tunnel in the ring network with the packet traffic signal based on the comparison. The modules then associate with the packet traffic signal an identifier of a destination station in the ring network that corresponds to the identifier of the tunnel and forward the packet traffic signal to the destination station via the tunnel. By transmitting the packet traffic via tunnels instead of flooding the RPR network, spatial reuse may be implemented allowing the network to support a higher volume of traffic.
