More Information
Summary:The claimed subject matter is directed to novel methods and systems for a network topology wherein an IP network is partially integrated and enhanced with a relatively small number of SDN-OF enabled network devices to provide a resilient network that is able to quickly recover from a network failure and achieves post-recovery load balancing while minimizing cost and complexity. By combining SDN-OF enabled switches with traditional IP nodes such as routers, a novel network architecture and methods are described herein that allows for ultra-fast and load balancing-aware failure recovery of the data network.
