Abstract
A telecommunications system includes a local data switch in communication with a first interexchange carrier network and a customer computer in communication with the local data switch. When there is a disruption in a first interexchange carrier network, the customer computer can reconfigure the local data switch from a customer facility such that data traffic to and from the customer facility is rerouted from the first interexchange carrier network to a second interexchange carrier network.
Claims20
A telecommunications system, comprising:
- a local data switch in communication with a first interexchange carrier network;
- a customer computer in communication with the local data switch for reconfiguring the local data switch from a customer facility such that data traffic to and from the customer facility is rerouted from the first interexchange carrier network to a second interexchange carrier network.
A method of rerouting data traffic, comprising:
- reconfiguring, by a customer computer in communication with a local data switch, a path of the data communications due to a service disruption in a first interexchange carrier network.
A system for rerouting data traffic, comprising:
- customer reconfiguration means in communication with a local data switch for reconfiguring a path of the data communications due to a service disruption in a first interexchange carrier network.
