    摘要: An apparatus for communicating packets in a network environment is provided that includes a first network element that includes a first neighbor list, the first network element being coupled to a second network element and a third network element. The first network element is operable to receive a second neighbor list from the second network element and a third neighbor list from the third network element. The first network element is further operable to determine one or more overlaps provided by the second and third neighbor lists when compared to the first neighbor list, the first network element relaying an update that it receives based on the one or more overlaps.

    摘要: A method for communicating packets in a network environment is provided that includes receiving a packet at a network element and identifying a sequence number included in the packet that correlates to awareness information associated with one or more adjacent network elements. A table included in the network element may be updated in order to account for the awareness information included within the packet that has not been accounted for by the network element. In cases where the awareness information included in the packet has already been accounted for, the packet may be ignored.

    摘要: A method for communicating packets in a network environment is provided that includes communicating, by a first network element, a first summary update to a second network element. The method further includes receiving a second summary update from the second network element. The exchange of the first and second summary updates achieves adjacency between the first and second network elements. The first and second summary updates include, at least, locally generated state information and a single link state.

    摘要: A method for reducing information being transmitted in a network is provided that includes gleaning routing information being communicated by a first network element, the routing information being stored such that the routing information may be accessed. An adjacency protocol may be executed between the first network element and a second network element that allows for a data exchange between the first and second network elements. The first network element does not communicate the routing information gleaned by the second network element during the data exchange associated with the adjacency protocol.

    摘要: A method for verifying a validity of a path is provided that includes receiving an advertisement communication at a first autonomous system from a second autonomous system, the advertisement communication including a list of one or more connected autonomous systems. The method also includes identifying whether the first autonomous system claims a connection to the second autonomous system and whether the second autonomous system claims a connection to the first autonomous system such that two-way connectivity is established between the autonomous systems. In response to the establishment of the two-way connectivity, a directed graph is constructed that includes two nodes representing the first and second autonomous systems respectively. An edge may be formed that connects the two nodes.

    摘要: In certain embodiments, performing a defensive procedure involves receiving at a first speaker of a first autonomous system a path advertisement from a second speaker of a second autonomous system. The path advertisement advertises a path from the second speaker of the second autonomous system. It is determined whether the second autonomous system is a stub autonomous system and whether a path length of the path is greater than one. If the second autonomous system is a stub and the path length is greater than one, a defensive measure is performed for the path. Otherwise, a default procedure is performed for the path.
