Abstract: The capabilities of restoring traffic inside provider network is well known benefit of MPLS-TE. However MPLS-TE tunnels are unidirectional P2P type, what lead to n-square scalability issue. This session describe solution implemented by one of Nordic Operator in order to satisfy 50ms convergency requirements of Mobile-backhole and IPTV services in network containing over 200 PEs. The assumptions and tradeoffs made to limit number of LSP form 40.000 down to ~4000 are highlight.
