摘要:
In one embodiment, a particular device in a computer network maintains a locally owned tunnel-state table, and joins a distributed hash table (DHT) ring. In addition, the locally owned tunnel-state table is shared with other devices of the DHT ring to establish a DHT-owned tunnel-state table. The particular device (and other devices) determines ownership of link-state advertisements (LSAs) for a specific portion of a traffic engineering database (TED) according to the DHT ring. As such, when the particular device (or any device) computes a path for a tunnel using a local TED, the particular device may request permission to use resources along the computed path that were advertised in particular LSAs from owners of those particular LSAs when not owned by the particular device.
