Multi-layer network and inter-layer resource management method

摘要

PURPOSE: A resource management method between multi-layered networks is provided to embody transmission path management and network resource management about the multi-layer transmission resources. CONSTITUTION: A node1(5), a node 2 and a node 3 proceed switching and control to an upper layer(3), a middle layer(2) and a lower layer(1) about their resources. A node 4(6) performs switching and control about resources of the middle layer and the lower layer. A node 5(7) performs switching and controlling resources of the lower layer. Each node forms TE(Traffic Engineering) link resources(8,9,10) connected to the adjacent node. Each node offers a service transmission path through the link resource.
