    摘要: A method and apparatus for connecting multiple customer sites over a wide area network (WAN) using an overlay network is described. In one embodiment of the invention, each one of multiple customer edge (CE) routers establishes a Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) session with one or more BGP route reflectors and announces their private IP network prefixes and one or more transport IP addresses to reach that CE router. The BGP route reflector(s) reflect those IP network prefixes and the one or more transport IP addresses to reach that specific CE router to the other CE routers. The CE routers receive those reflected IP network prefixes and the corresponding transport IP address(es) to reach that CE router in which those IP network prefixes belong and register them in their corresponding routing/forwarding data structures. In this way, the CE routers learn how to reach each other.

    摘要: Techniques are described for providing point-to-multipoint (P2MP) Ethernet service in a L2 network. Routers providing the Ethernet service allow an administrator to classify local attachment circuits as either “leaf” attachment circuits or “root” attachment circuits to define a tree-like architecture for forwarding Ethernet frames within a VPLS domain. Based on the classifications, each of router constructs flood domains, referred to herein as mesh groups, that control switching behavior between attachment circuits and pseudowires that transport the L2 communications through the VPLS domain. The routers utilize the mesh groups when switching L2 communications to enforce the requirements of E-TREE service or other L2 services in which L2 traffic is constrained within the L2 VPN to tree-like connectivity.

    摘要: Managing routes in a router involves the implementation of threshold-specific discard algorithms to discard redundant routes in an intelligent fashion based upon the volume of routes in the router. By employing threshold-specific discard algorithms to intelligently discard redundant routes within a router, the storage capacity of the router is utilized in a more efficient fashion because the routes are not dropped indiscriminately. A method and system comprise identifying a volume of routes in the router, determining whether the volume of routes has reached a threshold and applying a threshold-specific discard algorithm to routes in the router if the volume of routes has reached the threshold.

    摘要: A method of operating a network node in PIM-SM (Protocol Independent Multicast-Sparse Mode) is disclosed. In one embodiment, a Rendezvous Point Tree (RPT) to Shortest Path Tree (SPT) switch over process is initiated after the packet flow rate of the RPT data stream is compared against a predetermined threshold using a reverse rate limiting technique. If the packet flow rate of the RPT data stream exceeds the threshold, further analysis can be performed to decide whether the RPT to SPT switch over process should be initiated. Otherwise, if the packet flow rate does not exceed a predetermined threshold, the network node continues to receive multicast packets via the RPT until the predetermined threshold is reached.

    摘要: An efficient Reverse Path Forwarding (RPF) check mechanism is disclosed. In one embodiment, when a network node receives a multicast packet on an incoming interface, the network node obtains an expected incoming interface identifier from either a unicast routing table or a multicast forwarding information table. A RPF Flag stored in association with multicast flow information determines from which table the interface identifier is obtained. If the expected incoming interface does not match the actual incoming interface, the multicast packet is discarded.
