According to a method, when it is detected that service traffic needs to be switched from a first optical layer path to a second optical layer path, a first internet protocol (IP) link associated with the service traffic needs to be determined, and an IP link used to transmit the service traffic is adjusted from the first IP link to a second IP link; an optical layer path of the first IP link is switched from the first optical layer path to the second optical layer path after the adjustment of the IP link is completed; and the IP link used to transmit the service traffic is adjusted from the second IP link to the first IP link after the switching of the optical layer path is completed. In this way, continuity of the service traffic can be ensured.

An apparatus for optical link fault management includes a processor in a network device with an optical adapter of an optical link, and a memory that stores program code. The program code is executable by the processor to store state parameters from the optical adapter in a data log, input the state parameters from the data log into a failure prediction model, and generate, using the failure prediction model, a probability of failure of the optical adapter based on current state parameters from the data log. In response to the probability of failure reaching a failure threshold, the program code is executable by the processor to decrease data traffic in the optical link and to send an alert comprising the probability of failure. The failure threshold includes a probability of failure indicative of impending failure of the optical adapter.
