Abstract:
In one embodiment, a technique for detecting a break in a pseudowire and automatic shutting down user network interface (UNI) ports affected by the break is provided. In response to the loss of connectivity on the shut down ports, customer edge devices may automatically switch over to redundant circuits (e.g., other UNI ports not affected by the break in the pseudowire) and establish a different pseudowire.
