SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR REDUCING COMMUNICATION INTERRUPTIONS IN REDUNDANCY SWITCHING EVENTS

Japanese Patent JP2017098959

A

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a system and method for reducing communications interruptions in redundancy switching events.SOLUTION: A method for switching communication paths through a circulator network according to an embodiment comprises the step of identifying a first failed component in a plurality of components, provided that the first failed component is connected to the first communication path; the plurality of components include standby components that are not coupled to the communication paths and active components that are coupled to the communication paths; and of the standby and active components, a standby component that has not previously failed and an active component that has not experienced a failure are operable components. The method further comprises the step of switching circulators in the circulator network in such a way that a first operable component is connected to the first communication path and the failed component is disconnected from the first communication path; and the communication paths other than the first communication path are disrupted for a single switching event or shorter.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 4F
