Abstract:
A method for providing a Backup Label Switched Path for a specified Bypass Label Switch Path is disclosed. The method for providing a Backup Label Switched Path for a specified Bypass Label Switch Path includes establishing a Bypass LSP having an end-to-end path; obtaining the nodes traversed by the end-to-end path; generating a request to a path calculator which using the nodes provided on the end-to-end path calculates a path disjoint to those nodes; and signaling the calculated disjoint path as a Backup LSP for the Bypass LSP. The method for providing a Backup Label Switched Path for a specified Bypass Label Switch Path provides protection advantages over systems known in the art by providing capability for handling double failure scenarios.
