SERVICE CONFIGURATION METHOD AND APPARATUS - A simplified explanation of the abstract
- This abstract for appeared for US patent application number 18342169 Titled 'SERVICE CONFIGURATION METHOD AND APPARATUS'
Simplified Explanation
This application describes a method and apparatus for configuring a service in an optical transport network (OTN). The method involves a first OTN device receiving a message from an optical line terminal (OLT) device, which includes address information for a service. The first OTN device then determines if a path has already been established in the OTN for transmitting data of the service, based on the received message. If a path exists, the first OTN device may adjust the bandwidth of the path. If a path does not exist, the first OTN device establishes a new path for transmitting the service's data.
Original Abstract Submitted
This application relates to example service configuration methods and example apparatuses. In one example method, a first optical transport network (OTN) device receives a first message from an optical line terminal (OLT) device, where the first message includes first address information of a service. The first OTN device determines, based on the first message, whether a first path has been established in an OTN, where the first path is used to transmit data of the service, and the first path satisfies the first address information. The first OTN device establishes a path for transmitting data of the service or adjusts a bandwidth of the established first path based on a result of the determining.
