A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories. Title : 2547 egress PE Fast Failure Protection Author(s) : Jeyananth Minto Jeganathan Hannes Gredler Bruno Decraene Filename : draft-minto-2547-egress-node-fast-protection-02.txt Pages : 14 Date : 2013-07-29 Abstract: This document specifies a fast-protection mechanism for protecting [RFC2547] based VPN service against egress node failure. This mechanism enables local repair to be performed immediately upon a egress node failure. In particular, the routers upstream to egress node could redirect VPN traffic to a protector (a new role) to repair in the order of tens of milliseconds, achieving fast protection that is comparable to MPLS fast reroute.
