1588 results about "Label switching" patented technology

Label switching is a technique of network relaying to overcome the problems perceived by traditional IP-table switching (also known as traditional layer 3 hop-by-hop routing). Here, the switching of network packets occurs at a lower level, namely the data link layer rather than the traditional network layer.

Scalable protection mechanism for hierarchical multicast service in ring based networks

A novel fast and scalable protection mechanism for protecting hierarchical multicast service in ring based networks. The mechanism of the present invention is especially suitable for use in Multi-Protocol Label Switching (MPLS) ring based networks such as Metro Ethernet Networks (MENs). The mechanism provides fast protection for MPLS based point-to-multipoint (P2MP) Label Switched Paths (LSPs) in a scalable manner. Each multicast connection on each ring in the network is split into two sub-LSPs: a primary P2MP sub-LSP originating on a primary node and a secondary P2MP sub-LSP originating on a secondary node traveling opposite to the primary path. For each node to be protected, a point-to-point protection tunnel is provisioned from that node to a secondary node that forwards the packets to the secondary path on all child rings connected to that parent ring through the protected node and that are provisioned to receive the specific multicast connection. In the event of a failure, all the multicast traffic on that ring is directed through the protection tunnel to the secondary node. Upon exiting the protection tunnel, the packets are forwarded to the secondary LSP on the child rings for which this node is the secondary node and also continue along the primary LSP on the parent ring and along all child rings for which this node is the primary node.
