The path computation method includes: sending a path computation request message to the PCE after receiving a client-side service transmission request, the path computation request message carrying identifiers of a source node and a destination node that access a client-side service and carrying a path concatenation constraint; and receiving the path computation response message carrying path information returned by the PCE, the path information being obtained by the PCE through computation according to the identifiers of the source node and the destination node that accesses a client-side service, the concatenation constraint, and concatenation capabilities of each interface of nodes in a network. The technical solution of the present invention is simpler and more convenient, which obviously reduces the complexity of the specific implementation.

Abstract: A method, device, and system for multiplexing and mapping optical signals and demultiplexing and demapping optical signals are provided. The method for multiplexing and mapping optical signals includes the following steps: A label object that indicates a multiplexing and mapping relation is acquired. The label object includes a label and a label header. The label includes a type indication field and a TS indication field. The label object predefines a multiplexing and mapping policy about a first optical signal on a first optical channel and a second optical signal on a second optical channel. The first optical signal is multiplexed and mapped to the second optical signal according to the multiplexing and mapping policy. Therefore, when optical signals are multiplexed and mapped and are demultiplexed and demapped, so that an advantage of saving signaling overhead is realized.

Abstract: A path selection method is provided, which includes the following steps. A middle domain determines a path cost of an inter-domain link from the middle domain to a destination node domain according to a received path cost of an inter-domain link sent by a source node domain, and then sends the path cost to the destination node domain. The middle domain receives an optimal service path from the destination node domain to a destination node returned from the destination node domain, in which the optimal service path is determined according to the path cost of inter-domain link sent by the middle domain, and determines an optimal service path from the middle domain to the destination node according to the received optimal service path and sends the optimal service path to the source node domain, for making the source node domain determine an optimal service path from a source node to the destination node according to the optimal service path sent by the middle domain.
