Assignee:

AT&T Corp. - New York NY

International Classification:

H04J003/14
H04J001/16

US Classification:

370352, 370356, 370242, 370250, 370254

Abstract:

A system and method of routing communication signals is provided. A first technique uses a packet switched device that operates using Internet Protocol, the packet switched device determines one or more commands based on a routing request to establish, maintain, restore or breakdown one or more communication paths and a circuit switched device that provides physical switching between a plurality of ports based on the one or more commands from the packet switched device. A second technique for expediting error condition information is also provided. As various error conditions are recognized, information relating to the error conditions is provided directly to the packet switched device to enable the packet switched device to restore communications with minimal delay.

International Classification:

H04L 12/56

US Classification:

370352, 370254

Abstract:

A method for lightpath provisioning in a reconfigurable optical network that comprises the steps of naming each network addressable element in the reconfigurable optical network, determining current resources therein, determining current topology therein, requesting establishment of a lightpath, and allocating the lightpath. A system for lightpath provisioning in a reconfigurable optical network is also provided, comprising means for naming each network addressable element in the reconfigurable optical network, means for determining current topology in the reconfigurable optical network, means for determining current resources in the reconfigurable optical network, means for requesting establishment of a lightpath, means for allocating the lightpath and means for removing the lightpath upon completion.

International Classification:

H04L 12/56

US Classification:

370225, 370254

Abstract:

A method for lightpath restoration in a reconfigurable optical network comprises the steps of naming each network addressable element in said reconfigurable optical network, determining current topology in said reconfigurable optical network, determining current resources in said reconfigurable optical network, requesting establishment of a lightpath, requesting reservation of restoration capacity, allocating the lightpath, and reserving the restoration capacity. Also disclosed is a method for lightpath restoration that comprises the steps of reserving restoration capacity, detecting transmission failures in the reconfigurable optical network, handling exceptions as a result of transmission failures, and allocating transmission capacity.

US Classification:

370242, 370241

Abstract:

A method and apparatus for automatically localizing failures in a network. Failures can be localized by receiving an observation, querying a database for a plurality of models of risks and calculating a hypothesis from the plurality of models of risks that explains the observation. The observation comprises link failures reported by a plurality of data sources. The plurality of models or risks represents links that would likely be impacted by the failure of each component within the network stored in a Shared Risk Link Group (SRLG) database. A Spatial Correlation Engine (SCORE) applies an algorithm to calculate a hypothesis from the plurality of models of risks that explains the observation, thereby, automatically localizing failures in a network.
