    Abstract: A method for establishing a partitioned fabric network is described. The method includes establishing a fabric network including a plurality of border nodes to couple the fabric network to one or more external data networks and a plurality of edge nodes to couple to the fabric network to one or more hosts. The method further includes defining a plurality of partitions of the fabric network. The method further includes registering each of the plurality of partitions with a corresponding one of the plurality of border nodes and with each of the plurality of edge nodes.

    Abstract: A system and method for fast roaming in one or more enterprise fabric network. The fast roaming involves correlation operations performed in one or more databases managed by control plane of the fabric network to update routing locator entries associated with L2-VNID and L3-VNID in one or more databases when a client moves from behind a first switch to behind a second switch. In some embodiments, the control plane finds the L3-VNID from the L2-VNID. The L3-VNID is used to search for all IP addresses corresponding to a client-MAC. At least new routing locator value that is used in the routing locator entries is provided to the first switch, the second switch, and border nodes associated with the fabric network.

    Abstract: A Location/Identifier Separation Protocol (LISP) mapping server, including: a network interface for communicating with a LISP-enabled network; a mapping database; a subscription database; and an overlapping subscription publication engine (OSPE) to: receive a first mapping of a first subnetwork to a first routing locator (RLOC); add the first mapping to the mapping database; receive from a first ingress tunnel router (ITR) a subscription request for an endpoint identifier (EID) within the first subnetwork; add to a first subscription entry for the first subnetwork in the subscription database a subscription for the first ITR; receive a second mapping of a second subnetwork to a second RLOC, wherein the second subnetwork overlaps the first subnetwork; add the second mapping to the mapping database; and copy at least part of the first subscription entry to a second subscription entry for the second subnetwork.
