In order to protect a node N, the Point of Local Repair (PLR) LSR of N must learn the Merge Point (MPT) LSR(s) of node N such that traffic can be redirected to them in case node N fails. Redirecting the traffic around the failed node N depends on existing P2P LSPs. The pre-established LSPs originate from the PLR LSR and terminate on the MPT LSRs while bypassing LSR N.}, }
