    Abstract: According to an example aspect of the present invention, there is provided passive routing in a mesh network. One or more media frames from source nodes to target nodes in the mesh network are received (102). Routing information from a received media frame is derived (104), said routing information comprising a source node identifier, a target node identifier, a last node identifier and a frame identifier. The derived routing information is stored (106) into a route ring buffer. A reverse route for the received media frame is determined (108). The received media frame is prevented (110) from being forwarded in the mesh network, when the route ring buffer comprises routing information corresponding to the reverse route.

    Abstract: The present invention provides a method of limiting the frequency of floods within a data network, the floods arising as a data frame is routed to an unknown destination, the method comprising the steps of: receiving on an ingress port a data frame intended for a destination station and containing a MAC address of that station; checking the destination MAC address with the contents of a MAC table; and thereby determining whether the data frame is to be routed, discarded or flooded to all ports except the ingress port; and respectively routing, discarding or flooding the data frame to all ports except the ingress port. The present invention further provides a method of populating a MAC table within an Ethernet network with entries relating a MAC station address to a port to which it is connected, the method comprising the steps of: receiving on an ingress port a data frame intended for a destination station and containing a MAC address of that station; checking the destination MAC address with the contents of a MAC table; and thereby determining whether the destination MAC address and ingress port are to be written to the MAC table and, if so writing the destination MAC address and ingress port to the MAC table; and flooding the data frame to all ports except the ingress port.

    Abstract: A method of path computation in a segment routing network, the network comprising a set of nodes. The method comprises receiving a request for computation of a path between end nodes in the network, the request including a constraint. The method further comprises determining a segment identifier-optimised path defined by a stack of one or more segment identifiers, wherein the segment identifier-optimised path meets the constraint. The determining of the segment identifier-optimised path comprises analyzing a topology of the network comprising: at least a sub-set of the nodes, links between adjacent nodes indicative of possible paths between the nodes, and virtual links between pairs of nodes indicative of possible paths between the pairs of nodes. The method further comprises outputting at least one segment identifier which defines the determined path.
