Case Study
Two SONET rings need to be interconnected at two mutual nodes in order to ensure
redundant paths under failure conditions. Draw the interconnection between two
bi-directional line-switched (BLSR) SONET rings showing the primary and secondar
y path setups that designate the signal flows under normal and failure condition

s of two mutual nodes:
a) Failure of a transmitter or receiver in one of the nodes.
b) Failure of an entire node
c) A fiber break in the link between the two nodes
