3.2.15.3.1 MC-APS and Inter-Chassis Backup
ICB (Inter-Chassis Backup) spoke SDPs are supported for use with Cpipe services
in an MC-APS configuration. ICB improves switch times, provides additional
protection in case of network failures, and reduces packet loss when an active
endpoint is switched from a failed MC-APS node to the protection node. Figure 15
shows an MC-APS group with pseudowire redundancy and ICB protection.
