Abstract
There is described a transmission in a burst switching network, whereby data packets are collected to form a burst which is provided with a header. A loop-free common control channel is provided in the optical burst switching network to which all network nodes have access. Headers are transmitted by the loop-free control channel such that a header is distributed virtually in parallel to all network nodes and processed virtually in parallel in the network nodes.
