Abstract
A transmission device includes an ingress edge device that receives a frame, an egress edge device having a plurality of destination addresses, and a rewrite unit that rewrites a destination MAC address of the frame to another destination MAC address of the egress edge device when detecting a failure on a working path between the ingress edge device and the egress edge device.
Claims14
A transmission device comprising:
- an ingress edge device that receives a frame;
- an egress edge device having a plurality of destination addresses;
- a rewrite unit that rewrites a destination MAC address of the frame to another destination MAC address of the egress edge device when detecting a failure on a living path between the ingress edge device and the egress edge device.
A transmission method comprising;
- receiving a frame at an ingress edge device;
- rewriting a destination MAC address of the frame to another destination MAC address of an egress edge device when a failure on a working path between the ingress edge device and the egress edge device is detected.
