Zusammenfassung:Switch controllers (SC1-SC3) communicate with each other using a label distribution protocol (LDP) about labeled resources available in the sub-network, to make possible establishment of shortcuts. One controller (SC1) further manages assignment of resources between the network node (ISR1) and nodes (AH1-AH3) using a label database containing resources assigned to the nodes. The controller (SC1) further incorporates functions to determine shortcuts and assignment of the shortcuts, while node (ISR1) assigns a label to the shortcuts. Independent claims are included for a communication network, for a network node and for a switching controller.
