Abstract
A hierarchical route inquiry method in Automatic Switched Optical Network is applied to the networks having multi-layer route domains. According to the method, after the route controller RC in one child domain receives the Route Request, if it can not calculate the complete route, it sends the Route Request to the RC in the parent domain; if the RC in the parent domain can not obtain the complete route, it further interacts with other child domains to obtain the complete route and returns the Route Response back to the requester. The present invention solves the problem of creating a cross-domain connection in route inquiry in the Automatic Switched Optical Network.
