A method and a network node are provided, for distributing timing information in a packet-switched network. The method is characterized in that at least one network node used as a quasi slave node is located at a path extending between a master node and a slave node. The method comprising a step of calculating the timing at that network node, by passively processing packets belonging to a PTP-type packet stream being exchanged between the master node and the slave node and conveyed via that intermediate network node operating as a quasi slave.

Method for monitoring and managing data networks

Technique for transmitting Ethernet packets from an Ethernet source point to an Ethernet destination point via a communication link, comprising compression of the packets in such a manner that the source point transmits complete Ethernet packets, the communication link carries shortened information blocks (SIB) obtained from said complete Ethernet packets, while the destination point receives complete Ethernet packets essentially identical to those transmitted from the source point.

Method, device and system for transmitting Ethernet packets

A switching device for telecommunication networks, which comprises I/O ports, arranged by groups in I/O cards, for inputting incoming data streams and outputting outgoing data streams of arbitrary protocols, a switching fabric SF for handling internal data streams, a number of adaptation functional blocks AFBs associated with the switching fabric SF and forming a common pool of AFBs. The switching device also comprises a distribution block DB for switching between the I/O ports and the adaptation functional blocks AFBs, and configurable to provide a required connection between any of the I/O ports positioned on any of the I/O cards, and any of the adaptation functional blocks AFBs from the common pool of AFBs.
