Abstract: A networking device uses multipath routing for paths designated as logical paths having associated physical interfaces, such that link down events are processed by remapping related logical paths to other physical links. The networking device includes a forwarding table that is generated according to a multipath algorithm, such as an equal-cost multipath (ECMP) algorithm. The forwarding table specifies different logical paths mapped to physical links, which may include different physical interfaces and related processing information. Packets are processed by selecting a logical path and applying the mapped profile information and/or physical egress interface of the selected logical path. When a link down monitor detects a link down event, a logical path mapped to the now-unavailable physical link is remapped to another physical link, enabling packets to be selected for the affected logical path and successfully processed before re-calculation of forwarding table to account for the unavailable physical link.
