Abstract:
A method may include bridging in, via a fabric, a multicast data packet from a source device to a first edge device of a plurality of edge devices and flooding the multicast data packet to the plurality of edge devices within a mutual subnetwork of the fabric. The method further includes bridging out the multicast data packet from a second edge device of the plurality of edge devices to a receiving device. The source device and the receiving device are located within the mutual subnetwork.
