Abstract | We compare p-cycles and the recently introduced Resilient Routing Layers as candidate schemes for network-level fault protection. Using computational routing trials we show that RRL has shorter backup path lengths and more successful double-link fault protection. On the other hand, p-cycles may require less forwarding state. Several tradeoffs of interest for network designers are described. |
