Abstract: A method, apparatus and computer program product for providing synchronization of a multi-chassis cluster using SPB I-SID trees is presented. A plurality of network devices are defined for making up a single cluster. Each network device of the cluster is configured with a same cluster Identifier (cluster ID) and each network device of the cluster signals an Service Instance Identifier (I-SID). At least one ISID multicast tree is generated, each one of the at least one multicast tree rooted at one node of the cluster. Cluster synchronization messages are exchanged between the network devices of the cluster using the at least one multicast tree.

Abstract: A method, apparatus and computer program product for prevention of duplication and looping of multicast traffic within a multi-homed cluster of backbone edge bridges is presented. Multicast traffic is received on a first Access device (AD). The multicast traffic is forwarded from the first AD to a first Backbone edge Bridge (BEB). Any available Backbone Virtual Local Area Network (BVLAN) is chosen to forward the multicast traffic into a transport network by the first BEB. The multicast traffic is received at a second BEB from said first BEB. A determination is made whether a nickname in a packet of the multicast traffic is a nickname of the first BEB and when the nickname in the packet matches a nickname of the first BEB then abstaining from making copies of said packet for said first AD and said second AD.

Abstract translation: 提出了一种用于防止骨干边缘桥多宿主群集中多播流量重复和循环的方法，装置和计算机程序产品。 在第一接入设备（AD）上接收组播业务。 多播流量从第一个AD转发到第一个骨干边缘网桥（BEB）。 选择任何可用的骨干虚拟局域网（BVLAN）来将第一BEB的组播流量转发到传输网络中。 所述多播业务在所述第一BEB的第二BEB处被接收。 确定多播流量的分组中的昵称是否是第一BEB的昵称，并且当分组中的昵称与第一BEB的昵称匹配时，则放弃对于所述第一AD的所述分组的副本，并且所述第二BE 广告。
