ABSTRACT:
A system and method for improving reliability of a packet network are described. Data is transmitted on a first virtual circuit in the network. A message signaling a failure in receipt of the data is received on a second virtual circuit in the network. Finally, transmission of data is switched to the second virtual circuit within a predetermined period of time.
