Abstract
In a network including a plurality of network nodes interconnected via a plurality of primary links and a controller in communication with the plurality of network nodes, the controller is configured to provide an event profile to the plurality of network nodes, the event profile indicating routing changes to be implemented in a variety of link loss scenarios. Each of the plurality of nodes is configured to determine that a particular link loss event occurred, determine, based on the event profile, routing changes for the particular link loss event, and implement the determined routing changes.
