Abstract :
We present the design of a fault management scheme for an MPLS network. We use a backup path restoration scheme and a dynamic restoration scheme which preassigns an alternative path for the active transit path and also assigns a dynamic alternate path for a link failure to avoid loss. This proposed method achieves very high throughput as compared to existing methods. It is also suitable for high speed networks.
