Abstract: Described herein are methods and devices (e.g., routers) for performing segment routing over a multiprotocol label switching (MPLS) network. A method can include a router of the MPLS network receiving a packet, and the router modifying the packet by adding a segment routing header (SRH) type MPLS extension header. The SRH type MPLS extension header includes one or more segment identifiers (SIDs) that collectively provide a SID list for use in segment routing. The method further comprises the router copying one of the one or more SIDs in the SRH type MPLS extension header to a top of an MPLS label stack, and the router forwarding the packet as modified to another router of the MPLS network based on the one of the one or more SIDs included in a label stack entry at the top of the MPLS label stack.

Abstract: A method for extending Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) to change multiple route attributes at a time. The method includes receiving a BGP wide community container that includes an indication that multiple route attributes can be changed at a time, a one or more route conditions, and actions to perform on the multiple route attributes when the one or more route conditions are met. The method determines whether the route conditions are satisfied. The method performs the actions specified in the BGP wide community container on the multiple route attributes when the one or more route conditions are satisfied.

Abstract: A Border Gateway Protocol Monitoring Protocol (BMP) module sends to a Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) module a request for acquiring a capability information set; the BGP module traverses BGP capability data stored in the BGP module to acquire all BGP capability data configured in the network device and sends all the BGP capability to the BMP module; and the BMP module sends to the monitoring server an initial capability information set message carrying all the BGP capability data and a device identifier of the network device. By means of capability extension of a network device, the network device can acquire, through interaction between a BGP module and a BMP module, all BGP capabilities configured in the network device and send all the BGP capabilities to a monitoring server, so that the monitoring server can fully understand actual capability supported by the entire network, further providing an effective basis for deployment of and decision on the entire network.

Abstract: The present disclosure discloses a method and an apparatus for implementing load sharing. The method includes: for a congested first link on a first forwarding node, selecting, by a network device, a packet flow forwarded by using the first link; selecting a second link that may be used to forward the packet flow and that is not congested after available bandwidth of the second link is occupied by the packet flow, where the second link is a link between the first forwarding node and a second forwarding node; selecting a first hash gene corresponding to the second link; determining that a third link is not in a congested state after available bandwidth of the third link is occupied by the packet flow; and saving the first hash gene in a source node of the packet flow, where the third link is a link that is on the second forwarding node.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention provide a label distribution method and device. A first routing device sends a first BGP update message including a first VPN instance identifier and a first RT to a second routing device. The first routing device receives a second BGP update message including a second VPN instance identifier and a second RT. The first routing device allocates a first VPN instance label to a second VPN instance after the second routing device determines that the first RT is equal to the second RT. The first routing device sends a third BGP update message including the first VPN instance label to the second routing device.
