Abstract

A method, system and device for recovering services are provided, which relate to the field of communication. The method includes the following steps. Working resources of a Traffic Engineering (TE) link in a network are set to a shared MESH recovery state, and information of the shared MESH recovery state is flooded into the network, in which the information of the shared MESH recovery state is used to broadcast that the failure recovery mode of the working resources of the TE link is a band-level shared MESH recovery mode; whether the TE link fails is detected; and when detecting that the TE link fails, services on the working resources of the TE link are recovered by switching the N band-level FA LSPs on the TE link to the corresponding N band-level shared MESH recovery paths. The technical solutions reduce service recovery time and satisfy service requirements of customers while increasing bandwidth resource usage rate.

Claims (18)

1. A method for recovering a service, the method comprising:

planning N band-level Forward Adjacency Label Switched Paths (FA LSPs) according to working resources of a TE link in a network, and planning N band-level shared MESH recovery paths corresponding to the N band-level FA LSPs; wherein the N is an integer greater than or equal to 1, and the N is the number of all band-level shared MESH recovery paths corresponding to the TE link;

establishing the N band-level FA LSPs on the working resources of the TE link, and establishing the N band-level shared MESH recovery paths corresponding to the N band-level FA LSPs on recovery resources of the other TE links aside from the TE link in the network;

flooding information of a shared MESH recovery state which indicates a state of working resources included in each of the N band-level FA LSPs into the network, wherein the information of the shared MESH recovery state is used to broadcast that a failure recovery mode of the working resources of the N band-level FA LSPs is a band-level shared MESH recovery mode; and

detecting whether the TE link fails after the N band-level FA LSPs and the N band-level shared MESH recovery paths are established, and when detecting that the TE link fails, recovering a service on the working resources of the TE link by switching the N band-level FA LSPs on the TE link to the N band-level shared MESH recovery paths.

2. The method for recovering a service according to claim 1 , wherein the band-level is a timeslot-band including a number of timeslots, the band-level shared MESH recovery paths are timeslot-band shared MESH recovery paths, and the information of the shared MESH recovery state comprises an initial label of timeslot-band corresponding to the band-level FA LSPs and the number of timeslots included in the timeslot-band.

3. The method for recovering a service according to claim 1 , wherein the band-level is a waveband including a number of wavelengths, the band-level shared MESH recovery paths are waveband shared MESH recovery paths, and the information of the shared MESH recovery state comprises an initial label of wavebands corresponding to the band-level FA LSPs and the number of wavelengths included in the wavebands.

4. The method for recovering a service according to claim 1 , further comprising:

when the recovery of the service on the working resources of the TE link to the band-level shared MESH recovery paths fails, recovering the service on the working resources of the TE link to a preset channel-level shared MESH recovery path.

5. A system for recovering a service, the system comprising:

a node apparatus and a network management device, wherein

the network management device is configured to plan N band-level Forward Adjacency Label Switched Paths (FA LSPs) according to working resources of a TE link in a network, plan N band-level shared MESH recovery paths corresponding to the N band-level FALSPs, establish the N band-level FA LSPs on the working resources of the TE, link, and establish the N band-level shared MESH recovery paths corresponding to the N band-level FA LSPs on recovery resources of the other TE, links aside from the TE link in the network; wherein the N is an integer greater than or equal to 1, and the N is the number of all band-level shared MESH recovery paths corresponding to the TE link;

the node apparatus is configured to flood information of a shared MESH recovery state which indicates a state of working resources included in each of the N band-level FA LSPs into the network, detect whether the TE link fails after the N band-level FA LSPs and the N band-level shared MESH recovery paths are established; and recover a service on the working resources of the TE, link by switching the N band-level FA LSPs on the TE link to the N band-level shared MESH recovery paths when detecting that the TE link fails; wherein the information of the shared MESH recovery state is used to broadcast that a failure recovery mode of the working resources of the N band-level FA LSPs is a band-level shared MESH recovery mode.

6. The system for recovering services according to claim 5 , wherein the node apparatus is further configured to recover the services on the working resources of the TE link to the preset channel-level shared MESH recovery paths when the band-level recovery of the services on the working resources of the TE link fails.

7. The system for recovering services according to claim 5 , wherein

the band-level is a timeslot-band including a number of timeslots, the band-level shared MESH recovery paths are timeslot-band shared MESH recovery paths, and the information of the shared MESH recovery state comprises an initial label of timeslot-bands corresponding to the band-level FA LSPs and the number of timeslots included in the timeslot-bands.

8. The system for recovering services according to claim 5 , wherein

the band-level is a waveband including a number of wavelengths, the band-level shared MESH recovery paths are waveband shared MESH recovery paths, and the information of the shared MESH recovery state comprises an initial label of wavebands corresponding to the band-level FA LSPs and the number of wavelengths included in the wavebands.
