Mesh Networking
Compared with the ring network, the mesh network features high bandwidth utilization,
network scalability, and survivability. This network topology is suitable for the area with
large and evenly distributed traffic. The mesh network has higher reliability because
there are multiple routes available between two nodes. This effectively protects the
traffic against node congestion and node failure. The one shown in Figure 7-3 is an
example of mesh networking.

Traffic Engineering
The traffic engineering control technique of the OptiX OSN 7500 allows a
load-balance traffic networkwide for convenient network planning and improved
bandwidth availability.
