    Abstract: A transport LAN segment service is provided over a transport network. Responsibilities for configuring, provisioning and forwarding over a transport LAN segment are divided between layer 2 and 3 service provider edge devices, where the layer 3 edge device handles discovery and tunneling responsibilities, the layer 2 edge device handles learning and flooding responsibilities, and information can be exchanged between the layer 2 and 3 edge devices. Configuration is simplified by advertising TLS-label information, layer 2 address learning, and flooding when the needed configuration information has not yet been learned or discovered.

    Abstract: In some implementations, a network device may receive, from a first other network device, a route that includes a label, a prefix, and a next-hop identifier. The network device may generate, based on receiving the route, a composite tunnel attribute that includes an identifier of the network device and a label allocated by the network device. The network device may modify, based on generating the composite tunnel attribute, the route to cause the composite tunnel attribute to be included in the route. The network device may send, based on modifying the route, the route to a second other network device.

    Abstract: A network device may receive a non-Internet protocol (non-IP) frame with a particular size and may compare the particular size to a maximum transmission unit (MTU) associated with a path between the network device and another network device. The network device may divide the non-IP frame into fragments, based on the particular size being greater than the MTU and may prepend generic fragmentation headers to the fragments to generate fragments with headers, based on the particular size being greater than the MTU. The network device may add generic fragmentation header labels and transport labels to the fragments with the headers to generate fragments with headers and labels, based on the particular size being greater than the MTU. The network device may transmit the fragments with the headers and the labels to the other network device, via the path, based on the particular size being greater than the MTU.

    Abstract: The liveness of routing protocols can be determined using a mechanism to aggregate liveness information for the protocols. The ability of an interface to send and receive packets and the forwarding capability of an interface can also be determined using this mechanism. Since liveness information for multiple protocols, the liveness of interfaces, the forwarding capability of interfaces, or both, may be aggregated in a message, the message can be sent more often than could individual messages for each of the multiple protocols. This allows fast detection of failures, and sending connectivity messages for the individual protocols, such as neighbor “hellos,” to be sent less often.

    Abstract translation: 路由协议的活动可以使用用于聚合协议的活动信息的机制来确定。 接口发送和接收报文的能力以及接口的转发能力也可以使用这种机制来确定。 由于多个协议的活动信息,接口的活跃性,接口的转发能力或两者都可以聚合在消息中,所以可以比每个多个协议的单个消息更频繁地发送消息。 这允许快速检测故障,并且发送诸如邻居“hellos”的各个协议的连通性消息被更少地发送。

    Abstract: A network includes an egress node connected to an ingress node via a network path. The egress node is configured to receive, from the ingress node, a group of packets via the network path, where each packet includes an operations, administration, and management (OAM) field appended to the packet, and where the OAM field stores OAM information. The egress node is further configured to read the OAM information from the packets; analyze the OAM information, associated with one or more of the packets, to determine that a network condition exists on the network path; and notify the ingress node that the network condition exists to permit the ingress node to perform a rerouting operation.

    Abstract: A route for a data unit through a network may be defined based on a number of next hops. Exemplary embodiments described herein may implement a router forwarding table as a chained list of references to next hops. In one implementation, a device includes a forwarding table that includes: a first table configured to store, for each of a plurality of routes for data units in a network, a chain of links to next hops for the routes; and a second table configured to store the next hops. The device also includes a forwarding engine configured to assemble the next hops for the data units based on using the chain of links in the first table to retrieve the next hops in the second table and to forward the data units in the network based on the assembled next hops.

    Abstract: A method and a network device for enabling communication between unnumbered interfaces are provided. A device level address may be assigned to a network device. The network device may announce the assigned device level address to a neighboring network device over a link. A corresponding device level address associated with the neighboring network device may be received over the link. A route may be stored including the received device level address associated with the neighboring network device and the link. In some implementations, the announcement of the assigned device level address is performed during protocol configuration.
