Abstract

This paper proposes fault recovery procedures to improve the reliability of photonic Internet exchanges and presents experimental results that confirm the feasibility of employing these procedures for the first time. The proposed procedures employ cooperation between routers and optical cross-connects using over-lay model generalized multi-protocol label switching control plane to utilize network resources efficiently.
