摘要：In current scenario several commercial and social organizations are using computer networks for their business and management purposes. In order to meet the business requirements networks are also grow. The growth of network also promotes the handling capability of large networks because it counter raises the possibilities of various faults in the network. A fault in network degrades its performance by affecting parameters like throughput, delay, latency, reliability etc. In hierarchical network models any possibility of fault may collapse entire network. If a fault occurrence disables a device in hierarchical network then it may distresses all the devices underneath. Thus it affects entire networks performance. In this paper we propose Fault Tolerable hierarchical Network (FTN) approach as a solution to the problems of hierarchical networks. The proposed approach firstly detects possibilities of fault in the network and accordingly provides specific recovery mechanism. We have evaluated the performance of FTN approach in terms of delay and throughput of network.
