ABSTRACT:
A technique for implementing a tunable add/drop collector having at least two bursting ports for supporting dedicated and shared timeslotting in a point to consecutive point environment is disclosed. In one embodiment, the technique is realized by method for implementing a tunable add/drop collector for supporting dedicated and shared timeslotting in a network having a plurality of nodes comprising the steps of computing an add/drop burst schedule for scheduling timeslots wherein the timeslots comprise a plurality of dedicated timeslots and a plurality of shared timeslots; receiving timeslot control information at one or more nodes and transmitting data flows from the one or more nodes via at least two timeslotted ports in accordance with at least the timeslot control information and the add/drop burst schedule.
