This document provides a framework for the development of IP fast-
reroute mechanisms that provide protection against link or router
failure by invoking locally determined repair paths.  Unlike MPLS
fast-reroute, the mechanisms are applicable to a network employing
conventional IP routing and forwarding.  This document is not an 
Internet Standards Track specification; it is published for informational 
purposes.

This document is a product of the Routing Area Working Group Working Group of the IETF.
