Abstract :
An experimental evaluation of the main limitations that affect failure detection and recovery in routed Gigabit Ethernet (GbE), i.e. GbE point-to-point connection between current IP/MPLS routers, is presented. An implementation of fast GMPLS shared protection is then successfully demonstrated in an IP over 10 Gigabit Ethernet testbed. Experimental results show that recovery times in the millisecond range are achieved.
