IP network with single internet service is being evolved to multi-service network with voice, data, and multimedia service. It needs to provide more reliability and security. This slide will focus on the protection and restoration of MPLS traffic.

Traffic Protection
The factor of traffic switchover speed
lWhen the failure of link or node happens, routing protocol
needs several seconds to convergence and restoration. Events Detection of link failure Factors Medium and special platform Convergence time ~ s (POS + APS) Flooding of routing info. Timers of IGP, network size Routing recalculation ~5-30s

destination. l When master LSP is down, the flow will be switched to backup LSP. l Simultaneity, the source of master tunnel re-setup new LSP. l Backup LSP (RTA-RTC-RTE) support two type of Backup LSP: [ Hot-Standby LSP [ Ordinary Backup LSP RTA RTB Primary Tunnel RTD RTE

[ Hot-Standby LSP needs to be established before flow forwarding. [ Switchover time is short, about 250 ms.
l Ordinary Backup LSP
[ Ordinary Backup LSP initiate setup backup LSP when the source of tunnel receive the failure of the master LSP. [ Once backup LSP is established, the flow will be switched into backup LSP. [ Switchover time is long, about 1-2 seconds

be protected, it can be divided into: [ Link Protection [ Node Protection Protection type of Fast Reroute: [ One-to-one Backup [ Facility Backup Fast reroute is temporary protection measure. When the protected link or node is failed, the flow will be switched to backup tunnel. Advertise failure information to the source of tunnel to trigger tunnel reoptimization. Switchover time is less than 50 ms, more quickly than path protection.

[ One backup LSP protect one master LSP, this mode is usually called Detour LSP. [ Only one label in forwarding process.
l Facility Backup
[ One backup LSP protect more than one LSP, this mode is usually called Bypass LSP. [ Two labels in forwarding process.
l Most of the vendors support Facility Backup.

Link Protection
Link Protection
l Establish a protected tunnel from PLR to MP to protect the link between PLR
and NHop.
l Link protection only protect the link between PLR and MP. l One backup tunnel to protect more than one LSP tunnel, maybe it will bring
backup LSP in 50 ms. Simultaneously, the source of the master LSP carry out tunnel re-optimization as soon as it received the link failure information.

Pre-failure configuration
Pre-failure configuration
l The steps of Pre-failure configuration:
[ Obtain the label of MP ! The flag of Label Recording Requested in Session_Attribute Class is set as 0x02 [ Enable FRR function in the source of tunnel ! Enable "mpls te fast-reroute # in tunnel interface ! The flag of "Local protection is desired # in Session_Attribute Class is set as 0x01 [ Enable link protection in PLR ! Configure backup tunnel to NHop ! Tie the Protected Link to the Backup Tunnel

Failure detection
Failure Detection
l Commonly used failure detection methods:
[ Aim at physical media, for example SDH/SONET APS [ Aim at point to point link, for example PPP keepalive [ RSVP-TE expansion, hello message [ BFD (Bidirectional Failure detection) [ MPLS OAM

Traffic Switchover
Traffic Switchover
l When the protected link is down, PLR is responsible to switch the flow to
backup LSP : [ Affirm the backup LSP is ready or not, label is ready or not? [ Clear the flag bit of Local Protection Desired in Session_Attribute class. [ IP address value in IPV4 Tunnel Sender Address of Sender_Template is set as the IP address of PLR output interface . [ The value of RSVP_Hop class is set as the IP address of PLR output interface . [ Generate new ERO object [ Refresh RRO object [ The label stack of PLR will be changed, from one label to two labels.

[ Link protection: the link between PLR and NHop [ Node protection: NHop node and the link between PLR and NHop
l The allocation of label is different:
[ Link protection: need to know the label which NHop node distribute to PLR node [ Node protection: need to know the label which NNHop node distribute to NHop node.
