    Abstract: A network device may receive a message. The network device may determine that the message includes return information indicating a path to an initial device that generated the message. The network device may modify the message by adding an upstream device identifier, wherein the upstream device identifier identifies a device from which the message is received. The network device may modify the message by adding an indication of whether the initial device is reachable by the network device using a segment identifier. The network device may provide the modified message to a downstream device.

    Abstract: A device may receive a traceroute request for a path between two edge devices of a network, and may generate a response indicating a bit cost and an energy efficiency identifier associated with the device. The device may provide the traceroute request to a plurality of network devices associated with a path between the two edge devices, and may receive a plurality of responses indicating respective bit costs and energy efficiency identifiers associated with the plurality of network devices. The device may generate a traceroute response that includes the response and the plurality of responses, and may provide the traceroute response to one of the two edge devices to indicate, to the one of the two edge devices, an energy efficiency associated with the path.

    Abstract: A device may utilize a data modeling language to generate a request to identify components of a network device and operational dependencies of the components, and may provide the request to the network device. The device may receive, based on the request, data identifying the components and the operational dependencies of the components, and may receive power consumptions by the components and power off capabilities of the components. The device may generate a model of power consumptions by the components based on the power consumptions by the components and the power off capabilities of the components, and may identify, from the components, a component capable of powering off based on the model. The device may instruct the network device to place the component in a power save state.

    Abstract: In some implementations, a first network device may receive an advertisement from a second network device. The advertisement may be associated with indicating that the second network device is configured to support a particular flex-algorithm. The first network device may identify, in the advertisement, an address of the second network device. The first network device may configure a routing table of the first network device to indicate that the second network device is capable of receiving traffic associated with the particular flex-algorithm based on the address. The first network device may perform, using the routing table, an action associated with routing the traffic associated with the particular flex-algorithm.

    Abstract: A network device may receive an internet protocol (IP) packet that includes an IP packet header. The IP packet may include at least one extension header, which includes at least one of: a hop-by-hop options header, a first destination options header that precedes a routing header, or a second destination options header that precedes an upper-layer header. The network device may determine that: the hop-by-hop options header includes an Operations and Management capabilities (OAM) option, the first destination options header includes the OAM option and an IP address of the network device matches a destination IP address or a routing IP address identified in the routing header, or the second destination options header includes the OAM option and the IP address of the network device matches the destination IP address. The network device may perform one or more actions indicated by the OAM option.

    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.
