Separating and isolating multiple network stacks in a network element may enable a network element to simultaneously operate within multiple forwarding planes respectively corresponding to the multiple network stacks. In addition to the network stack, other protocols and routing tools may also be instantiated for each desired forwarding plane. The different instantiations of the network stacks may be executed in parallel in respective memory spaces that are distinct and separate. In this manner, each forwarding plane may operate independently on the network element from other forwarding planes.

Separation and isolation of multiple network stacks in a network element

A method for handling call set-ups in a telecommunications network. The method includes receiving a request to set up a call. A dynamic load value is compared to a load threshold. The call is allowed to be set up when the dynamic load value is less than the load threshold.

Method and system for handling asynchronous transfer mode (ATM) call set-ups

The method for handling call set-ups in a telecommunication network includes receiving a request to set up a call. The method also includes comparing a dynamic load value for a switch to a load threshold for the switch. The method further includes allowing the call to be set up when the dynamic load value is less than the load threshold.
