Abstract:
A method and system for failure notification at a remote node in communication with a local node are disclosed. The local node is configured for faster failure detection than the remote node. In one embodiment, the method includes establishing a failure monitoring session between the local node and the remote node, receiving at the remote node, a failure notification from the local node, the failure notification sent using a protocol of the failure monitoring session, and rerouting traffic at the remote node in response to the failure notification.
