Abstract

A method for implementing the reconstruction of an optical network. In the operating system (OS) side, the OS with trail function calculates data of the OS side and the network element side needed by the reconstruction base on the inputted physical information related to the optical network reconstruction and the stored data related to the network, then the OS divides the expansion procedure into smaller steps to modify said data one by one, thus accomplishing the reconstruction of the optical network. The invention can automatically reconstruct an optical network without interrupting the traffic thereof, and the method being simpler, more reliable and less risky one compared with the prior manual method.
