Abstract
A connection-oriented network has a first working path (W) and a second working path (W). A node (E) receives signalling to allocate resources for a part of a recovery path (R) for the first working path (W). The resources are shared by the recovery path (R) for the first working path and a recovery path (R) for the second working path (W). The node (E) stores an association between the shared resources and a node (A) on the first working path, identified in the signalling, which should be notified when the shared resources are used by the recovery path (R) for the second working path (W). An RSVP-TE <NOTIFY_REQUEST> object in the signalling carries an address of the node to be notified. The node (E) sends an RSVP-TE Notify message to a node (A) on the first working path (W) which indicates that the shared resources are in use.
