Figure 11-3 shows how traffic is rerouted after a line break between Node 0 and Node 3.
All circuits originating on Node 0 and carried to Node 2 on Fiber 2 are switched to the protect
bandwidth of Fiber 1. For example, a circuit carried on VC4-1 on Fiber 2 is switched to VC4-9 on
Fiber 1. A circuit carried on VC4-2 on Fiber 2 is switched to VC4-10 on Fiber 1. Fiber 1 carries the
circuit to Node 3 (the original routing destination). Node 3 switches the circuit back to VC4-1 on
Fiber 2 where it is routed to Node 2 on VC4-1.
Circuits originating on Node 2 that were normally carried to Node 0 on Fiber 1 are switched to the
protect bandwidth of Fiber 2 at Node 3. For example, a circuit ca rried on VC4-2 on Fiber 1 is
switched to VC4-10 on Fiber 2. Fiber 2 carries the circuit to Node 0 where the circuit is switched
back to VC4-2 on Fiber 1 and then dropped to its destinatio n.
