A configuring protection group on at least one client entity is served by at least two server entity, wherein the protection group includes at least one work entity and at least one protect entity. A plurality of supplement client entities of client entity is created such that at least one of the supplement client entity flows over one server entity and checking the entities for a fault to raise alarm to their respective controllers.

Method and system of protection switching in a network element

A method for protection of data traffic transmitted over 2-fiber shared protection ring on STM-1/OC-3 interface is provided. Also, the method involves carrying extra traffic in a ring topology for STM-1/OC-3 interface. This is achieved by fixing the granularity to one of 'VC12/VC11/VC3/VC12-VC3/VC11-VC3' for the STM-1 interface and to one of 'VT2/VT1.5/STS-1' for the OC-3 interface upfront when the protection is configured on the network element.
