TLDR
This work begins the theoretical study of resilient routing tables, which incorporate "failover" paths into routers' forwarding tables and are used in many modern network designs.

Many modern network designs incorporate "failover" paths into routers' forwarding tables We initiate the theoretical study of such resilient routing tables

Ensuring connectivity via data plane mechanisms

TL;DR: The design, called Data-Driven Connectivity (DDC) ensures routing connectivity via data plane mechanisms, which will allow networks to provide a much higher degree of availability, while still providing flexible routing control.

Provable data plane connectivity with local fast failover: introducing openflow graph algorithms

TL;DR: It is shown that the problem of computing failover tables is related to graph search, and three different algorithms achieving different tradeoffs are presented, in terms of the number of required failover rules, theNumber of tags, as well as the resulting path lengths.

Scalable Multi-Failure Fast Failover via Forwarding Table Compression

TL;DR: A new forwarding table compression algorithm is contributed and the concept of compression-aware routing is introduced to improve the achieved compression ratio, and Plinko, a new forwarding model that is designed to have more easily compressible forwarding tables is created.

On the Resiliency of Static Forwarding Tables

TL;DR: This paper embarked upon a systematic algorithmic study of the resiliency of forwarding tables in a variety of models (i.e., deterministic/probabilistic routing, with packets-header-rewriting, with packet-duplication), and shows that resiliencies to four simultaneous link failures, with limited path stretch, can be achieved without any packet modification/duplications or randomization.

Plinko: building provably resilient forwarding tables

TL;DR: This paper introduces Plinko, a network architecture that uses a novel forwarding model and routing algorithm to build networks with forwarding paths that, assuming arbitrarily large forwarding tables, are provably resilient against t link failures, ∀t ∈ N.

Fast Reroute Extensions to RSVP-TE for LSP Tunnels

TL;DR: This document defines RSVP-TE extensions to establish backup label- switched path (LSP) tunnels for local repair of LSP tunnels to allow nodes to implement either method or both and to interoperate in a mixed network.

Fast IP Network Recovery Using Multiple Routing Configurations

TL;DR: This paper presents a new recovery scheme called Multiple Routing Configurations (MRC), based on keeping additional routing information in the routers, and allows packet forwarding to continue on an alternative output link immediately after the detection of a failure.

R-BGP: staying connected In a connected world

TL;DR: Simulations on the AS-level graph of the current Internet show that R-BGP reduces the number of domains that see transient disconnectivity resulting from a link failure from 22% for edge links and 14% for core links down to zero in both cases.

Achieving convergence-free routing using failure-carrying packets

TL;DR: This work proposes a technique called Failure-Carrying Packets (FCP), a technique that allows data packets to autonomously discover a working path without requiring completely up-to-date state in routers, and shows that it provides better routing guarantees under failures despite maintaining lesser state at the routers.

Proactive vs reactive approaches to failure resilient routing

TL;DR: It is proved that when no more than one link failure notification is suppressed, FIR always finds a loop-free path to a destination if one such path exists, and it is shown that FIR provides better stability and availability than OSPF.
