Abstract:
A method for active network fabric management. The method includes receiving a probe packet by a termination beacon, where the probe packet is associated with a stream, the stream is identified using an origin beacon identification (ID) for an origin beacon, a stream source IP address, a stream destination IP address, an L2 origin interface, and a TTL value or an IP Hop value. The method further includes generating, after receiving the probe packet and after the expiration of a probe rate request (PRR) refresh timer, a rate control packet (RCP) by the termination beacon where the RCP includes a PRR for the stream, and sending the RCP to the origin beacon using an origin beacon IP address, where the origin beacon IP address is different than the stream source IP address.
