Abstract

This document describes a mechanism for fast detection of MPLS LSP failure when a link fails and scales to all LSPs affected by the failure. Fast detection enables ingress LERs to quickly recover onto backup LSPs. A performance improvement in the reliability of LSPs is expected. The mechanism described relies on a node and network architecture that integrates L1/L2/L3 technology.
