Understanding Remote LFA over LDP Tunnels in IS-IS Networks
In an IS-IS network, a loop free alternate (LFA) is a directly connected neighbor that
provides precomputed backup paths to the destinations reachable through the protected
link on the point of local repair (PLR). A remote LFA is not directly connected to the PLR
and provides precomputed backup paths using dynamically created LDP tunnels to the
remote LFA node. The PLR uses this remote LFA backup path when the primary link fails.
The primary goal of the remote LFA is to increase backup coverage for the IS-IS networks
and provide protection for Layer 1 metro-rings.
LFAs do not provide full backup coverage for IS-IS networks. This is a major setback for
metro Ethernet networks that are often shaped as ring topologies. To overcome this
setback, Resource Reservation Protocol - Traffic Engineering (RSVP-TE) backup tunnels
are commonly used to extend the backup coverage. However, a majority of network
providers have already implemented LDP as the MPLS tunnel setup protocol and do not
want to implement the RSVP-TE protocol merely for backup coverage. LDP automatically
