Abstract

L'invention concerne un procédé de dérivation de support pour une liaison de raccordement, et un dispositif de réseau. Dans le procédé, un premier dispositif de réseau : détermine un support devant être dérivé sur une liaison de raccordement principale ; envoie un message de demande de dérivation de support à un deuxième dispositif de réseau ; reçoit des informations d'accusé de réception de demande de dérivation de support envoyées par le deuxième dispositif de réseau ; détermine un support de dérivation cible dans le support devant être dérivé, d'après des informations relatives au support de dérivation cible, et détermine des informations de configuration de liaison de raccordement auxiliaire d'après les informations relatives au support de dérivation cible et des premières informations de configuration ; envoie les informations de configuration de liaison de raccordement auxiliaire à un troisième dispositif de réseau ; et commute des données de service du support de dérivation cible sur une seconde liaison de raccordement auxiliaire. Selon la solution technique de la présente invention, lorsque des données d'utilisateur sont en grande quantité, des données sur un support de dérivation cible d'une liaison de raccordement principale sont dérivées sur une liaison de raccordement auxiliaire, ce qui permet de réduire la charge de la liaison de raccordement principale et de satisfaire les exigences de QoS des services d'utilisateur.
