Abstract
The invention provides a method for load-balanced traffic grooming in an IP over Quasi-CWDM network, including the steps of: inputting a network topology, a set of service traffics between nodes in node pairs and a null route, and when selecting one of the node pairs from the set of service traffics and establishing a traffic request between the nodes in the node pair, deleting the virtual link for which the corresponding light path has no sufficient remnant capacity in an IP layer of the network; finding the virtual link route having the lowest hop count in the IP layer, and determining whether each virtual link on the route can satisfy the service request by means of traffic grooming; and if yes, adopting the traffic grooming strategy to satisfy the service request; and if not, adopting the wave plane based strategy to establish a light path to satisfy the service request.
