Claim 12:
13. A method for transmitting configuration information, comprising:
acquiring an optical transport network frame, wherein a predetermined container and configuration information about the predetermined container are carried in a payload area of the optical transport network frame; and
acquiring the configuration information and the predetermined container from the payload area of the optical transport network frame, and acquiring a client signal from the predetermined container;
wherein acquiring the configuration information and the predetermined container from the payload area of the optical transport network frame comprises:
acquiring a part of the configuration information from the payload area of the optical transport network frame, and acquiring the predetermined container and an other part of the configuration information from the payload area of the optical transport network frame according to the part of the configuration information;
wherein acquiring the part of the configuration information from the payload area of the optical transport network frame comprises:
acquiring, from overhead of the optical transport network frame, a number G3 of first encoding blocks occupied by the part of the encoded configuration information;
determining positions of G3 first encoding blocks in the payload area of the optical transport network frame, and extracting the G3 first encoding blocks from the determined positions in the payload area of the optical transport network frame; and
decoding a data stream in the G3 first encoding blocks to obtain the configuration information; and
acquiring the configuration information from the payload area of the optical transport network frame comprises:
acquiring, from the overhead of the optical transport network frame, a number G1 of first encoding blocks occupied by encoded configuration information;
determining positions of G1 first encoding blocks in the payload area of the optical transport network frame, and extracting the G1 first encoding blocks from the determined positions in the payload area of the optical transport network frame; and
decoding a data stream in the G1 first encoding blocks to obtain the configuration information,
wherein a first encoding block is an encoding block obtained by dividing the payload area of the optical transport network frame.
