Abstract
In today’s environment, as the need for more bandwidth for intensive networking applications such as data browsing, video conferencing, etc increase, so also does the need for high bandwidth-transport network facilities. Optical WDM networks show great promise in handling such high data volume problems, and it is expected that they will form the backbone of the next generation of high volume light wave networks. Multihop networks show the most promise in that they offer the greatest flexibility of design. This paper describes an approach to modify the routing algorithm for finding out the alternate routes on the occurrence of single node fault in WDM optical network where GEMNET is used as a physical topology and also try to find out the link which carries the maximum number of light paths in the network for randomly generated source-destination pair.
