@misc{rfc9705, series = {Request for Comments}, number = 9705, howpublished = {RFC 9705}, publisher = {RFC Editor}, doi = {10.17487/RFC9705}, url = {https://www.rfc-editor.org/info/rfc9705}, author = {Chandrasekar R and Tarek Saad and Dante Pacella}, title = {{Refresh-Interval Independent RSVP Fast Reroute Facility Protection}}, pagetotal = 24, year = 2025, month = mar, abstract = {The RSVP-TE Fast Reroute (FRR) extensions specified in RFC 4090 define two local repair techniques to reroute Label Switched Path (LSP) traffic over pre-established backup tunnels. Facility backup method allows one or more LSPs traversing a connected link or node to be protected using a bypass tunnel. The many-to-one nature of local repair technique is attractive from a scalability point of view. This document enumerates facility backup procedures in RFC 4090 that rely on refresh timeout, hence, making facility backup method refresh-interval dependent. The RSVP-TE extensions defined in this document will enhance the facility backup protection mechanism by making the corresponding procedures refresh-interval independent, and hence, compatible with the Refresh-Interval Independent RSVP (RI-RSVP) capability specified in RFC 8370. Hence, this document updates RFC 4090 in order to support the RI-RSVP capability specified in RFC 8370.}, }
