Aspects of the disclosure provide a network switch having a plurality of physical ports, a detector and a packet processing pipeline. Each of plurality of physical ports is associated with one or more network paths in a transport network to transmit/receive traffic of the network paths. The detector is configured to detect loss of continuity (LOC) on the network paths. The packet processing pipeline is configured to identify first two or more logical interfaces mapped to a first network path, determine second two or more logical interfaces mapped to a second network path that is an alternate network path for the first network path, and use the second two or more logical interfaces in forwarding decisions in response to a detection of LOC on the first network path, such that traffic to the first network path is sent to a physical port associated with the second network path. |
