Abstract:
For the Multiprotocol Label Switching Transport Profile (MPLS-TP)
linear protection capable of 1+1 and 1:1 protection has already been
defined. That linear protection mechanism has not been designed for
handling multiple, simultaneously occuring failures, i.e. multiple
failures that affect the working and the protection entity during the
same time period. In these situations currently defined protection
mechanisms would fail.
This document introduces use cases and requirements for mechanisms
that are capable of protecting against such failures. It does not
specify a multi-failure protection mechanism itself.
