摘要:
A line card in a network node having a local memory coupled to a local controller and local logic circuit. The local memory in the line card stores state information for signals processed by the line card itself, as well as state information for signals processed by other line cards. The logic circuit and controller implement a same fault detection and signal processing algorithms as all other line cards in the group, to essentially effectuate a distributed and local hardware based control of automatic protection switching (APS) without interrupting a central processor. The line card also performs error checking and supervisory functions to ensure consistency of state among the line cards.
摘要:
Each node in the network broadcasts its unique identifier to the other nodes. Each node assigns a different network address to each of the nodes based on the unique identifier received from the node. However, each node assigns the network addresses in a common predetermined manner. Thus, each node arrives at the same assignment of network addresses. In a preferred embodiment, the assignment of network addresses is maintained as an address table at each node.
