摘要:
A network device creates a forwarding table that includes information associated with a set of destinations in a network, and determines next hops for the set of destinations. The network device populates the forwarding table with information associated with the next hops, and stores the forwarding table. The forwarding table is used to forward a multicast packet toward a multiple destinations, and includes separate entries that depend upon routes the multicast packet is to traverse towards destinations with multiple choices for next hops.
