Abstract: A method in a network element that includes multiple interfaces for connecting to a communication network includes receiving via an ingress interface packets that are not allowed to undergo re-routing and that are addressed to a destination via a first egress interface. The packets are forwarded via the first egress interface when there is a valid path from the first egress interface to the destination. When there is no valid path from the first egress interface to the destination, a second egress interface is selected from a group of multiple egress interfaces that have respective paths to the destination and are assigned to packets for which re-routing is allowed, and the packets are forwarded via the second egress interface until recovering a path to the destination.

Abstract: A switching apparatus includes multiple ports, each including a respective buffer, and a switch controller. The switch controller is configured to concatenate the buffers of at least an input port and an output port selected from among the multiple ports for buffering traffic of a long-haul link, which is connected to the input port and whose delay exceeds buffering capacity of the buffer of the input port alone, and to carry out end-to-end flow control for the long haul link between the output port and the input port.
