    摘要: A network device is to receive traffic including neighbor discovery messages from requesting customer devices, and can detect the neighbor discovery messages within the traffic according to a distributed inspection scheme that includes the network device and a remote component. The network device is to then examine the neighbor discovery messages to determine if the neighbor discovery message should be forwarded to other of the customer devices, and respond to the requesting customer devices.

    摘要: Techniques are provided herein for receiving synchronization messages at a second network device that is in a hot standby configuration from a first network device that is maintaining Internet Protocol version 6 (IPv6) state machines for one or more neighbor devices. The synchronization messages are configured to indicate an IPv6 state for each state machine maintained in the first network device. An IPv6 state for corresponding state machines is updated in the second network device based on the synchronization messages such that the IPv6 states in the second network device allows the second network device to actively process IPv6 traffic for the one or more neighbor devices upon traffic switchover from the first network device to the second network device without restarting the corresponding IPv6 state machine associated with each of the one or more neighbor devices in the second network device. The roles of the first and second device with respect to active and standby state are reversed after a switchover.

    摘要: A network processing device is configured to receive a configuration message from a host device and forward the configuration message to a server. The configuration message can be configured to request the server assign an Internet Protocol (IP) address to the host device. The network processing device can be configured to send at least one probe message to the host device responsive to receiving the configuration message. The network processing device can be configured to determine whether the host device intends to continue utilizing a previously assigned IP address in addition to the IP address requested by the configuration message based, at least in part, on any responses to the at least one probe message received from the host device.

    摘要: A CMTS or other data aggregation component having a DHCPv6 relay agent extracts a Media Access Control (MAC) address of an end device from a data packet received from an end device. A DHCPv6 data frame is created for transmission to a DHCPv6 server. The MAC address may be inserted into a specific option of the DHCPv6 data frame, where data in the option may not be processed by the server and are echoed back to the aggregation component or CMTS. The DHCPv6 data frame is transmitted to the DHCPv6 server. The component receives a response message from the server that may contain the MAC address or similar client hardware address as it was sent to the server by the network component. The network component may determine an outgoing port interface from which the response message should be sent, utilizing the MAC address and an interface bundling table. In this manner, interface bundling may be enabled.

    摘要: Techniques for automatically identifying an edge-facing router in a network are provided. In one technique, data is obtained at a first router of a subscriber network. The data may be included in a DHCP message or a NDP RA message. The first router determines, based on the data, whether the first router is a service provider (SP)-facing router, which is a router that is coupled to a SP router and no other router in the subscriber network is logically between the SP-facing router and the SP router. If it is determined that the first router is an SP-facing router, then the first router stores identification data that identifies the first router as an SP-facing router. Otherwise, the first router stores identification data that identifies the first router as a non-SP-facing router.
