Abstract

The number of ring layers necessary to support the traffic in a stack ring network is determined, and the ring layers are divided into a first set of layers and a second set of layers. The interchange points between the first set of layers and the second set of layers are determined, and the traffic between the first set of layers and the second set of layers is allocated. The method subdivides each of the first and second sets of layers into a first set of layers and a second set of layers, and repeats the process of determining interchange points, allocating traffic, and subdividing the sets of layers until each set of layers consists of a single layer.
