ABSTRACT:
Backup ports for a first router of the survivable network are determined so that the first router can reach a destination node in the event of a double link failure. A routing path graph having the destination node is accepted. The routing path graph includes one or more links terminated by one or more primary ports of the first router. For each router of at least a part of the routing path graph, assuming that a link terminated by a primary port of the first router is removed, a first part of the routing path graph including the destination node and a second part of the routing path graph (sub-graph) separated from the first part are defined. Two exits for the sub-graph to reach the graph are determined. A primary backup port and a secondary backup port are determined for the first router using the determined two exits.
