Abstract

A method for signalling failures in telecommunications networks, in particular MS-SPRING optic fiber telecommunications networks, comprising nodes connected through spans, that provides for protecting the information traffic on said telecommunications networks by defining a work channel and a protecting channel and switch operations between said work and protecting channels, said switch being driven through protection words exchanged among the nodes of said telecommunications network. According to the invention it is provided that the node (NE1) of the telecommunication network that receives a failure signal (SF) on an incoming span (SP) and is in a Lockout Of Work Channel (LKW) state sends modified protection words (PRW) in opposite direction.
