Label switched path restoration under two random failures

Routing of QoS guaranteed tunnels with failure protection requires bandwidth reservation along both primary and alternate paths. By judicious selection of alternate paths, a significant amount of resilient bandwidth can be shared among backup paths. This paper presents maximum sharing schemes for alternate paths that protect against single as well as double simultaneous link failures in the network.
