Embodiments of this application disclose a communication method and system applied to an MTN or an SPN. An MTN communication system includes a third communication apparatus connected to the first communication apparatus and the second communication apparatus by using a first MTN path and a second MTN path respectively. If the second MTN path is available, the third communication apparatus transmits data stream corresponding to a first client by using the second MTN path. If the second MTN path is unavailable, the third communication apparatus transmits the data stream corresponding to the first client by using the first MTN path, to ensure normal transmission of the data stream. In addition, the third communication apparatus may further implement load sharing.

This application relates to a slot negotiation method and a device. The method includes: A transmitter sends a first FlexE overhead frame to a receiver, to request active/standby calendar switching. When the receiver is in a restart state, the receiver does not respond to the received first FlexE overhead frame. In addition, the RX sends a routine update second FlexE overhead frame to the transmitter. Determining that the second FlexE overhead frame is not a response to the first FlexE overhead frame, the transmitter sends a third FlexE overhead frame to request active/standby calendar switching again. According to the method in this application, incorrect calendar switching on the transmitter side caused by a mistaken response of the receiver can be avoided. This reduces the likelihood of a service interruption caused by the existing slot negotiation mechanism.

Slot negotiation method and device

A port mode adaptation method includes a network device determining a status of a port on the network device. The method includes the network device setting a mode of the port to an Ethernet interface mode if the status of the port satisfies a first condition. In this way, when the network device identifies the mode of the port on the network device as the FlexE interface mode, and there is no link at the FlexE shim of the port, the network device may determine that a mode used by a port interconnected with the port is not a FlexE interface mode. In this case, the network device may adaptively set the mode of the port to the Ethernet interface mode, to ensure that the port on the network device can use a same mode as another port interconnected with the port.

Port mode adaptation method and apparatus

This application provides a communication method and a communications apparatus. The method can include performing extension based on an existing operation, administration, and maintenance (OAM) packet after an intermediate node in a path of a segment routing traffic engineering (SR-TE) tunnel senses a bit error fault, to support a bit error switching function. That is, the method can include adding, to the OAM packet, identification information used to identify that signal degradation occurs in the SR-TE tunnel. As a result, it is ensured that the SR-TE tunnel supports the bit error switching function of the intermediate node, and a customer service can be effectively prevented from being damaged.

A communication method implemented by a network server, includes: obtaining, based on geographical location information of a plurality of base stations, a first connection relationship between the plurality of base stations; converting the first connection relationship into a second connection relationship based on a first correspondence between geographical location information of a base station and a network element ID of a network device connected to the base station, where the second connection relationship is a topological connection relationship between a plurality of network elements, and the plurality of base stations are respectively connected to the plurality of network elements in a one-to-one correspondence; and generating a service connection configuration of the bearer network based on the second connection relationship. As a result, the service connection configuration of the bearer network can be automatically generated, thereby reducing an error rate and improving work efficiency.
