    Abstract: In one embodiment, a method comprises generating, by a first provider edge router associated with a first segment identifier, a primary label for reaching a destination, and repair information for reaching the destination if a second provider edge router is unavailable to reach the destination; allocating, by the first provider edge router, a first protected next-hop address associated with the first segment identifier for protected reachability to at least the destination; and sending via a core network, by the first provider edge router, an advertisement specifying the label and the repair information, enabling an ingress provider edge router to insert, into a data packet destined for the destination, the labels from the first provider edge router and the second provider edge router based on the repair information, for fast rerouting to the destination via one of the first or second provider edge router if the other is unavailable.

    Abstract: In one embodiment, a method comprises detecting, by a first provider edge router, a second provider edge router providing reachability to a prescribed destination address prefix via a protected next hop address; allocating, by the first provider edge router, a mirror forwarding table associated with the second provider edge router and identifying a destination used by the second provider edge router for reaching the prescribed destination address prefix; and the first provider edge router sending repair information to a Border Gateway Protocol (BGP)-free core network router in the core network, the repair information enabling the BGP-free core network router to add a context label and reroute a received data packet to the first provider edge router if the second provider edge router is unavailable, the context label enabling the first provider edge router to identify the destination in the rerouted data packet for delivery to the destination address prefix.

    Abstract: In one embodiment, a method comprises detecting, by a provider edge router configured for providing reachability for core network traffic to a prescribed destination address prefix, a backup provider edge router relative to the prescribed destination address prefix; allocating, by the provider edge router, a distinct protected next-hop address for reachability to at least the destination address prefix via the provider edge router; and sending via a core network, by the provider edge router, repair information for the prescribed destination address prefix to ingress provider edge routers and a BGP-free core network router in the core network, the repair information enabling the ingress provider edge routers to insert primary and backup switching labels into each data packet of the core network traffic enabling the BGP-free core network router to reroute the received packet to the backup provider edge router if the provider edge router is unavailable.
