Modern Internet Protocol (IP) networks demand specific qualitative and quantitative parameters that need to be met. One of these requirements is the minimal packet loss in the network. After a node or link failure within the network, the process of network convergence will begin. This process may take an unpredictable time, mostly depending on the size and the structure of the affected network segment and the routing protocol used within the network. The categories of proposed solutions for these problems are known as Fast ReRoute (FRR) mechanisms. The majority of current Fast ReRoute mechanisms use precomputation of alternative backup paths in advance. This paper presents an Enhanced Multicast Repair (EM-REP) FRR mechanism that uses multicast technology to create an alternate backup path and does not require pre-calculation. This principle creates a unique reactive behavior in the Fast ReRoute area. The enhanced M-REP FRR mechanism can find an alternative path in the event of multiple links or nodes failing at different times and places in the network. This unique behavior can be applied in the IoT sensors area, especially in network architecture that guarantees reliability of data transfer.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/s20123428","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2020,6,17]],"date-time":"2020-06-17T13:11:32Z","timestamp":1592399492000},"page":"3428","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":15,"title":["Enhanced Multicast Repair Fast Reroute Mechanism for Smart Sensors IoT and Network Infrastructure"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"20","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-8118-7513","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Jozef","family":"Papan","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of InfoCom Networks, University of \u017dilina, 010 26 \u017dilina, Slovakia"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-1158-7420","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Pavel","family":"Segec","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of InfoCom Networks, University of \u017dilina, 010 26 \u017dilina, Slovakia"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-3721-8188","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Oleksandra","family":"Yeremenko","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Infocommunication Engineering, Kharkiv National University of Radio Electronics; 61000 Kharkiv, Ukraine"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Ivana","family":"Bridova","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of InfoCom Networks, University of \u017dilina, 010 26 \u017dilina, Slovakia"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Michal","family":"Hodon","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Technical Cybernetics, University of \u017dilina, 010 26 \u017dilina, Slovakia"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2020,6,17]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","unstructured":"Kvist, F., Urke, A.R., and \u00d8vsthus, K.
