摘要： In some embodiments, an apparatus comprises a core network node configured to be operatively coupled to a set of network nodes. The core network node is configured to receive a broadcast signal from a network node from the set of network nodes, which is originated from a host device operatively coupled to the network node. The broadcast signal is sent via a tunnel from the network node to the core network node, such that other network nodes that are not included in the tunnel do not receive the broadcast signal. The core network node is configured to retrieve control information associated with the broadcast signal without sending another broadcast signal, and then send the control information to the network node.

摘要： Techniques are described for providing encryption and authentication for different types of routing protocol communications based on a variety of factors. A method comprises configuring, on a network router, a set of logical interfaces for communicating routing protocol messages with one or more peer routing devices, maintaining a set of security associations that define corresponding authentication information and encryption information for the routing protocol messages, and maintaining one or more descriptor sets that each specify a set of criteria, wherein, for at least one of the descriptor sets, the set of criteria specifies one of the logical interfaces of the network router. The method further comprises selecting one of the descriptor sets having criteria that match an individual flow, selecting one of the security associations based on the selected descriptor set, and applying the selected security association to secure the outbound flow of the routing protocol messages.

摘要： This disclosure describes techniques for protecting an endpoint of a label switched path. In one embodiment, a system includes an ingress router, a primary egress router, backup router, and a point of local repair (PLR) router. The ingress router, the PLR router, and the first egress router form a first label switched path. The backup router provides protection for the primary egress router such that the backup router provides routing services for the first egress router when the first egress router is not available. The primary egress router and the backup router share an anycast IP address. The backup router advertises a route to reach the primary egress router, but upon receiving a packet intended for the primary egress router, the backup router identifies the destination of the packet and forwards the packet to the destination instead of the primary egress router along a different route.

摘要： Techniques are described for performing non-revertive failover with network devices. A network device comprising a control unit and interface cards receives routing information protocol (RIP) updates each having a metric value. The control unit signals bidirectional forwarding detection (BFD) sessions based on the metric values of each of the RIP updates with, for example, a media gateway. The control unit also selectively installs a RIP route based on the metric values. The media gateway monitors the BFD sessions, and upon failure of an active BFD session, indicates the network device to perform non-revertive failover by sending a revised plurality of RIP updates. The network device performs non-revertive failover according to the revised plurality of RIP updates. Because of the flexibility of BFD, the network device need not revert back to a previous RIP route, therefore curtailing excessive failover.

摘要： Techniques are described for distribution of label switched packets, such as multiprotocol label switched (MPLS) packets, across multiple physical data paths. The techniques may, for example, be used to load balance the label switched packets across an aggregated link having two or more logically associated physical interconnects. A network device, for example, includes an interface card to receive packets associated with a common label switched path (LSP), and a control unit to distribute the packets across multiple paths. The network device may include label data that maps ranges of labels, such as MPLS labels, to types of payloads carried by the label switched packets. In accordance with the label data, the control unit extracts flow information from the label switched packets and distributes the label switched packets across the paths based on the flow information. The control unit may generate hash values from the flow information, the labels, or combinations thereof, to control distribution of the label switched packets.

摘要： In general, techniques are for providing a direct forwarding path between virtual routers within a single virtualized routing system. In one example, a method includes combining forwarding information from a plurality of virtual routers into collapsed forwarding information that comprises one or more direct forwarding paths between the respective virtual routers. The method also includes determining a direct forwarding path to an egress interface of the second virtual router, in response to receiving a network packet at an ingress interface of a first virtual router. The method also includes forwarding the network packet from the ingress interface of the first virtual router to the egress interface of the second virtual router using the direct forwarding path, wherein the network packet traverses a switch fabric directly from the ingress interface of the first virtual router to the egress interface of the second virtual router.

摘要： A packet-forwarding integrated circuit includes a control logic module and a selector block configured to produce a value indicating an incoming interface associated with a multicast data stream that meets stream health requirements, wherein the multicast data stream is one of a plurality of redundant multicast data streams each received on different incoming interfaces, wherein based on the value produced by the selector block the control logic module outputs data packets of the multicast data stream that meets stream health requirements received on the incoming interface, and discards data packets of other multicast data streams received on other incoming interfaces not indicated by the selector block. In response to detecting that a quality of one of the redundant multicast data streams has fallen below a configured threshold, the control logic automatically rewrites the selector block to forward a different one of the redundant multicast data streams.

摘要： An ingress router of a provider network receives a packet from a customer network, determines that the packet includes a customer network label and that the packet is to be tunneled through the provider network, based on the determination, adds a delimiter label to the packet indicative of a bottom of a provider network label stack and one or more provider network labels to the packet, and forwards the packet to a next routing device along the provider network tunnel. An egress routing device of the provider network receives a packet comprising a provider network label stack, removes the provider network label stack from the packet, determines whether the packet comprises a delimiter label following the provider network label stack, and, when the packet comprises the delimiter label, forwards the packet to a customer network interface device.
