But if you have --
|CE1--------PE1
PE3--------CE3
X.X.X.X---------| --------------------MPLS
DOMAIN-------------------
|
CE2--------PE2
PE4--------CE4
Now my primary link is CE1-PE1 and secondary is CE2-PE2
If my CE1-PE1 goes down i route traffic via CE2-PE2<<<<<<I understand this
ok...
when traffic from CE3 for X.X.X.X reaches PE3 , next hop is still PE1 ( as
MPBGP has not converged so fast in MPLS domain of SP) ...so how will traffic
be forwareded , as PFR claims 3 sec.
