Re: ATM SVC rerouting time

That depends on if the SVC was torn down due to a broken link, or if the 
switch is just coming online, or if it was rerouted around congestion, and a 
million other tuneable factors.

In our network, SVC (SPVCs) get rerouted at near sonet speeds, although that's 
not very scientific.

Hi folks.


Does anyone know the time it takes or should take for an SVC to be
rerouted in a small 4-6 switch ATM network running PNNI ?

Is it part of the ATM spec or does it depend on the switch manufacturer ?



Thanx
Paul
