Abstract

Services are transmittable via a transport network by using container(s), wherein each container is adapted to transmit data with a specific bandwidth and is multiplexable, according to a dynamic multiplexing structure, to at least another container adapted to transmit data with a higher bandwidth. The network management system selects a container being adapted to transmit data with a first bandwidth out of the number of containers, determines all containers of the number of containers being adapted to transmit data with a bandwidth lower than the first bandwidth, and defines all possible termination points for each determined container. All possible termination points are defined before a service to be transmitted is selected by a user. A number of the possible termination points for each determined container is selected based on a selection scheme in order to provide the selected number of the possible termination points to the user.
