Abstract

Various embodiments described herein support or provide for low latency protection switching, such as detecting a failure in a network associated with a network topology; determining a node that is affected by the failure; identifying a recovery scenario that is preconfigured for the node in an event of the detected failure; setting a value for a protection mode identifier associated with the node; and determining an alternate data transmission path for each node in the group of nodes based on the protection mode identifier.
