The video demonstrates an ability to reroute traffic around a failed router (node) using Fast Reroute feature of Cisco MPLS Traffic Engineering. The concept is very similar to what we saw with Link Protection in the previous video except for the extra label communication from Merge Point (MP) router to Point-of-Local-Repair (PLR) router due to that fact that they are no longer directly connected, which will be elaborated in this video. We will go through the configuration and also perform failover test so you can see this in action.
