Dynamic signaling of bypass tunnel based on bandwidth threshold at a point of local repair

Abstract:

A device may receive information that identifies a bandwidth value of a label-switched path (LSP) that includes a protected link or a protected node. The device may determine a bypass LSP bandwidth threshold based on the bandwidth value. The device may determine a set of path bandwidth values associated with a set of paths. The device may compare the set of path bandwidth values and the bypass LSP bandwidth threshold. The device may select a path, of the set of paths, based on comparing the set of path bandwidth values and the bypass LSP bandwidth threshold. The device may generate a bypass LSP using the path.
