Abstract

A device may configure a dynamic set of bypass label-switched paths (LSPs), to protect one or more protected LSPs, based on configuration information. The dynamic set of bypass LSPs may be initially configured to include zero or more bypass LSPs. The configuration information may indicate a first condition for adding a bypass LSP to the dynamic set of bypass LSPs, and a second condition for removing a bypass LSP from the dynamic set of bypass LSPs. The device may determine that a network traffic condition, associated with the dynamic set of bypass LSPs, is satisfied. The device may modify the dynamic set of bypass LSPs to add, remove, or reconfigure one or more bypass LSPs based on determining that the network traffic condition is satisfied.
