Abstract

L'invention concerne un procédé de détection d'état de contrôleur de passerelle média par une passerelle média dans un réseau à séparation de contrôle et de transport. Ce procédé consiste à augmenter la taille d'un paquet d'extension de protocole dans le protocole d'interface utilisé pour la communication entre la passerelle média et le contrôleur de passerelle média. Ce procédé comprend les étapes suivantes: a) transmission dudit paquet d'extension de protocole au contrôleur de passerelle média par une passerelle média; b) réception dudit paquet d'extension de protocole par le contrôleur de passerelle média, et authentification de ladite passerelle média en fonction des paramètres se trouvant dans le paquet d'extension de protocole; c) en fonction du résultat de l'authentification de la passerelle média par le contrôleur de passerelle média, détection par ladite passerelle média de l'état de la liaison du contrôleur de passerelle média; et d) répétition des étapes ci-dessus de manière périodique. Selon l'invention, une passerelle média peut détecter l'état d'un contrôleur de passerelle média en temps réel. Lorsque le contrôleur de passerelle média présente une défaillance, la passerelle média se connecte à un contrôleur de passerelle média de réserve. Cette possibilité permet de supporter parfaitement une fonction de double attribution dans le réseau, utilisée pour faire face à la défaillance.
