20100209106 | OPTICAL RING NETWORK SYSTEM - An optical transmission apparatus connected to an optical ring network stores identification information of an optical transmission apparatus as a communication partner predetermined on a communication path. Each optical transmission apparatus includes self identification information in header information of an optical signal having a working wavelength used in normal operation, and transmits the optical signal to one of the two optical ring networks transferring optical signals in mutually opposite directions.
