There is a clear need to protect these real-time applications and to provide the shortest switching times in the event of failure. This document outlines the requirements, describes the protection mechanisms available, and where necessary proposes extensions to facilitate mLDP P2MP and MP2MP LSP protection within an MPLS network.}, }
