    Abstract: A method is provided in one example and includes broadcasting a switching node identifier associated with a first link-state protocol enabled switching node to a plurality of link-state protocol enabled switching nodes. The plurality of link-state protocol enabled switching nodes are in communication with one another by a link-state protocol cloud. The method further includes broadcasting a priority associated with the first link-state protocol enabled switching node to the plurality of link-state protocol enabled switching nodes. The method further includes broadcasting connectivity information of the first link-state protocol enabled switching node to the plurality of link-state protocol enabled switching nodes using the link-state protocol cloud. The connectivity information includes connectivity of the first link-state protocol enabled switching node with at least one spanning tree protocol enabled switching node.

    Abstract translation: 在一个示例中提供了一种方法,并且包括将与启用第一链路状态协议的交换节点相关联的交换节点标识广播到多个支持链路状态协议的交换节点。 多个链路状态协议使能的交换节点通过链路状态协议云彼此通信。 该方法还包括将与启用第一链路状态协议的交换节点相关联的优先级广播到多个支持链路状态协议的交换节点。 该方法还包括使用链路状态协议云将具有第一链路状态协议的交换节点的连接信息广播到使用多个链路状态协议的交换节点。 连通性信息包括启用第一链路状态协议的交换节点与至少一个支持生成树协议的交换节点的连通性。
