Revertive Switching
The APS implementation also provides the revertive and non-revertive modes with non-revertive
switching as the default option. In revertive switching, the activity is switched back to the working
port after the working line has recovered from a failure (or the manual switch is cleared). In non-
revertive switching, a switch to the protection line is maintained even after the working line has
recovered from a failure (or if the manual switch is cleared).
A revert-time is defined for revertive switching so frequent automatic switches as a result of
intermittent failures are prevented. A change in this value takes effect upon the next initiation of
the wait to restore (WTR) timer. It does not modify the length of a WTR timer that has already
been started. The WTR timer of a non-revertive switch can be assumed to be infinite.
In case of failure on both working and the protection line, the line that has less severe errors on the
line will be active at any point in time. If there is signal degrade on both ports, the active port that
failed last will stay active. When there is signal failure on both ports, the working port will always
be active. The reason is that the signal failure on the protection line is of a higher priority than on
the working line.
Bidirectional 1+1 Switchover Operation Example
outlines the steps that a bi-directional protection switching process will go through
during a typical automatic switchover.
