    摘要: A method for scaling hierarchical route reflectors (RRs) using automated Outbound Route Filtering (ORF) is presented. A first route reflector identifies other route reflectors configured as Route reflector clients within a route reflector hierarchy. The first route reflector then builds a common set of route target filters received from the client route reflectors and sends the common set of route target filters to client route reflectors.

    摘要: A path verification protocol (PVP) which enumerates a series of messages sent to a set of nodes, or routers, along a suspected path identifies forwarding plane problems for effecting changes at the control plane level. The messages include a command requesting interrogation of a further remote node for obtaining information about the path between the node receiving the PVP message and the further remote node. The node receiving the PVP message replies with a command response indicative of the outcome of attempts to reach the further remote node. The series of messages collectively covers a set of important routing points along a path from the originator to the recipient. The aggregate command responses to the series of PVP messages is analyzed to identify not only whether the entire path is operational, but also the location and nature of the problem.

    摘要: A method, apparatus and computer program product for providing convergence for a dual-homed site in a network is presented. An occurrence of a failure between a first Provider Edge (PE) device and a first Customer Edge (CE) device in communication with a dual-homed site is detected. A determination is made whether an alternate route exists for the dual-homed site in a routing table associated with the first PE device. When an alternate route exists then a routing entry associated with the first CE device in a routing table of said first PE device is kept from being deleted for a predetermined amount of time, the routing table is modified to reference the alternate route, the routing entry is rewritten to perform a POP and lookup in a VRF table of the first PE device, and the routing entry is deleted after the predetermined amount of time has elapsed.

    摘要: Customer edge (CE) to CE device verification checks initiate routes from available CEs as a set of path verification messages, destined for remote CE routes serving a remote VPN. An extended community attribute, included among the attributes of the path verification message, stores the identity of the originating CE router. The path verification message propagates across the network, and transports the identity of the originating CE router because the originator identity is not overwritten by successive routing. Upon receipt by the remote CE, the originator is determinable from the extended community attribute. A further reachability field is also included in the extended community attribute and indicates whether per CE or per prefix is appropriate for the particular route in question. In this manner, CE-CE connectivity checks identify CEs which are reachable from other CEs. Accordingly, such a mechanism allows for route reachability aggregation on a per-CE or per-prefix reachability basis.

    摘要: A computer system includes functionality enabling a provider edge router to determine whether network data such as VRF information is properly associated with a corresponding virtual private network. A first node through which the network data is transmitted generates a signature value uniquely associated with the virtual private network. The first node forwards the signature value along with the network data to a second node of the physical network. The second node, in turn, verifies that the network data (such as VRF information) is properly associated with the second node (and virtual network) based on its own generation of a signature value, which is compared with the signature value received from the first node.
