Abstract
A node comprises at least one processor configured to determine whether a degree of bandwidth degradation of a local link of the microwave node fulfils a degradation condition. Further, the at least one processor is configured to generate a signal indicating a fail of the local link, if the degradation condition is fulfilled.
Claims20
A microwave node for an Ethernet Ring Protection (ERP) network, the microwave node comprising:
- a processor configured to execute a program, the program comprising instructions when executed causes the processor to:
- determine, based on a bandwidth notification message (BNM) received from a first node in the ERP network, whether a degree of bandwidth degradation of a local link of the microwave node fulfils a degradation condition;
- generate, in response to determining that the degradation condition is fulfilled, a signal indicating a fail of the local link;
- and
- determine, in response to receiving from a second node a signal indicating signal fail of a remote link of the second node and having an identifier, and determining, according to the identifier, that a BNM from the second node has not been received, that the degradation condition is not fulfilled.

A computer program product storing instructions, which when executed on a processor cause the processor to:
- determine, based on a bandwidth notification message (BNM) received from a first node in an ERP network, whether a degree of a bandwidth degradation of a local link of a microwave node fulfils a degradation condition;
- generate, in response to determining that the degradation condition is fulfilled, a signal indicating a fail of the local link;
- and
- determine, in response receiving from a second node a signal indicating signal fail of a remote link of the second node and having an identifier, and determining, according to the identifier, that a BNM from the second node has not been received, that the degradation condition is not fulfilled.
