Patent ID: 8588608

Claim:
A method, implemented by a management platform, comprising: managing connections of a plurality of user modules to a plurality of transmission modules of a central office in an optical access network, a user module being able to receive from and send to at least one of said transmission modules, called a first transmission module, wherein the step of managing comprises, in the event of dysfunction of the first transmission module: selecting, among the user modules connected to the first transmission module, at least one of the user modules, called a priority user module or priority user modules, as a function of at least one predetermined criterion of priority associated with the user modules; and connecting said at least one priority user module to at least one second transmission module by rearranging the connection of said at least one priority user module, said rearranging comprising: tuning a sending wavelength and a reception wavelength of said at least one priority user module so that they are equal to a sending wavelength and a reception wavelength, respectively, of the at least one second transmission module selected as a function of at least one predetermined criterion of optimization.
