FAULT-TOLERANCE AND RESOURCE MANAGEMENT IN A NETWORK

摘要

A method including receiving network topology and resource management information; generating a mapping between the network topology of a network and resource reservation paths associated with flows using the network based on the network topology and resource management information; generating a failure recovery plan (FRP) based on the mapping, wherein the FRP instructs one or more other network devices on how to manage a failure such that one or more resource reservation paths associated with flows impacted by the failure are not deleted; and loading the FRP on the one or more other network devices.
