ABSTRACT:
A data processing apparatus is configured for initiating a not-via approach for creating repair path information for a first link between the first network node and a second network node; creating a list of other network nodes that the not-via repair path traverses; creating and storing entries in the FIB identifying repair addresses for the network nodes and that cause (a) packets directed to all addresses normally reachable through the first link to be encapsulated to the second node not via the first node, (b) packets directed to a not-via address that is normally reachable through the first link to be encapsulated to the second node not via the first node, and (c) dropping packets directed to a not-via address that is normally reachable through the first link when the not-via address is in the list; repeating the preceding steps for all other links of the first network node.
