Abstract

L'invention concerne un procédé, un système et un dispositif destinés à acheminer des trames de données, appartenant au domaine des communications. Le procédé inclut les étapes suivantes : quand une défaillance se produit dans une partie de tunnel d'un tunnel en fonctionnement, un dispositif d'extrémité proche supérieur (401) de la partie défaillante reçoit les trames de données, puis lance un tunnel de protection de segment. Le nœud initial du tunnel de protection de segment est le dispositif d'extrémité proche supérieur (401) ; le nœud terminal du tunnel de protection de segment est un dispositif d'extrémité proche inférieur (402). Les trames de données sont acheminées vers le dispositif d'extrémité proche inférieur (402) par l'intermédiaire du tunnel de protection de segment, et acheminées vers un dispositif de destination par l'intermédiaire d'une partie non défaillante du tunnel en fonctionnement, par le dispositif d'extrémité proche inférieur (402). Le système inclut le dispositif d'extrémité proche supérieur (401) et le dispositif d'extrémité proche inférieur (402). Le procédé, le système et le dispositif assurent la protection de segment du tunnel PBB TE. Quand une défaillance se produit dans le tunnel en fonctionnement, on remplace la partie défaillante du tunnel en fonctionnement par le tunnel de protection de segment, et utilise la partie non défaillante du tunnel en fonctionnement par la suite. Cela permet d'utiliser de manière efficace les ressources du réseau, d'éviter un gaspillage de la largeur de bande du réseau, et d'offrir à l'opérateur de multiples modes de protection contre les défaillances.
