IP Fast Reroute for BGP-Only Networks
IP Fast Reroute (IPFRR) [RFC5714] is widely deployed in IP networks
to provide protection against failures by invoking locally determined
repair paths. Traditional IPFRR deployments require the use of a
link-state IGP to provide locally computed repair paths. This
document provides the problem statement and outlines a solution to
enable IPFRR computation and deployment in BGP-only networks. The
solution maintains standard BGP routing operations while providing
fast reroute capabilities comparable to IGP-based deployments.
