6.2.3 Protection
The RPR service of the OptiX OSN equipment takes the protection of several levels,
including:
1.
If an equipment or facility failure is detected, the traffic is wrapped back to the opposite
direction at the stations adjacent to the failure, connecting the outer ring with the inner
ring. The protection switching time is less than 50ms. Though featuring fast protection
switching, wrapping protection wastes bandwidth. As illustrated in Figure 6-16, traffic
is transferred from node 4 to node 1 through nodes 3 and 2. If there is a fiber cut
between node 2 and node 3, they will wrap the traffic and connect the two rings
together for protection.
