A method for mapping a packet service onto an optical transport network is disclosed. An embodiment of the method includes: receiving a packet service message from an access side, identifying the message by using a first board number of a first line board in which a first egress is located and a first port number of the first egress; sending the message to the first line board corresponding to the first board number; and encapsulating the message that is sent to the first line board, mapping the encapsulated message onto a first optical channel data unit ODU corresponding to the first port number, and sending the first ODU by using the first egress. Cross-connect scheduling of any bandwidth in any direction is implemented based on a packet service, and packet services on different tributary boards share different ODU timeslots or a same ODU timeslot on a same line board.

Methods and devices for implementing Link Pass Through in a point-to-multipoint network in respect of the network reliability field are provided. Embodiments of the present invention are applicable to a network having an access gate, an access device, an aggregation device and a router. When a failure occurs in an active link between the access device and the aggregation device or between the aggregation device and the router, the access device breaks the connection between the access device and the access gate enables a standby link to conduct communication. Advantageously, when a failure occurs in the active link between the access device and the aggregation device or between the aggregation device and the router, the access device may break the connection between the access device and the access gate and the access gate may enable a standby link to conduct communication. Therefore, no matter what type of failure occurs, the embodiments of the present invention may enable a standby link to conduct communication, ensuring thereby communication reliability.
