Abstract
In case of a failure in a high speed packet switching network, the failure information provided by the multiplicity of resources is registered in the access nodes of the network. The failure information can be retrieved by the network management on request for fault correlation. A plurality of alarms flooding the network management when a failure occurs is thus avoided.
