Not-via characteristics
100% coverage in all cases
Intuitive repair paths
Next best path
Close to path used after re-convergence
Requires tunnels
But combining with LFAs reduces the volume of tunnelled traffic in most topologies
Only required at protecting nodes, not all nodes on repair path
Computational complexity about an order of magnitude worse than normal SPF
Not-via typically < 100mS compute
Slightly longer for complex SRLGs
Requires an extra (private) address per interface
Can assign a “group” to a router and allow automatic allocation.
