ABSTRACT
PIM multicast network is very convenient and can be fully applied in applications that provide one-to-many services, such as video conference, online games and real time voice stream, etc. The key point is the share tree environment formed by Rendezvous Point (RP) and Core node. When RP node fails, the share tree network will solve the crash. In this paper, an efficient bootstrap router (BSR) based RP mechanism was proposed to solve the RP recovery problem in share tree network of PIM while the RP fails.

A proactive tree recovery mechanism for resilient overlay multicast
Overlay multicast constructs a multicast delivery tree among end hosts. Unlike traditional IP multicast, the nonleaf nodes in the tree are normal end hosts, which are potentially more susceptible to failures than routers and may leave the multicast ...
Efficient failure recovery techniques for segment-routed networks
AbstractIn communication networks, protecting against node and link failures is an important requirement. In data networks such as IP/MPLS networks robust protection techniques have evolved, while also depending on the underlying transport ...
