Title: Nexthop Fast ReRoute for IP and MPLS
State: Active
Authors: Naiming Shen
Group: Individual Submissions (none)
Date: 2004-07-22
This document describes a mechanism called NFRR (Nexthop Fast ReRoute) to
perform fast re-route for any type of traffic in the event of a link/node
failure or a nexthop unreachable. The protected traffic can be IP, MPLS,
unicast or multicast. The re-routed traffic can either be destined to the
nexthop router or to the next-nexthop router. RSVP explicitly routed LSPs
are used as a tool to perform the local patch for minimizing the packet
loss.
