Abstract :
The failure recovery issue in Ethernet technology is becoming more important than it used to earlier, reason being now Ethernet is not restricted to LAN level only. Very widely it is getting used in the MAN level also. So network administrator can´t handle if it takes the same time to recover the failure as in the LAN level. This paper presents a dynamic algorithm named “Dynamic Spanning Tree Recovery” protocol (DSTR protocol) that gives fast recovery from the link failure and at the same time it is allowing the sender to go on with its normal execution.
