摘要： A path verification protocol (PVP) which enumerates a series of messages sent to a set of nodes, or routers, along a suspected path identifies forwarding plane problems for effecting changes at the control plane level. The messages include a command requesting interrogation of a further remote node for obtaining information about the path between the node receiving the PVP message and the further remote node. The node receiving the PVP message replies with a command response indicative of the outcome of attempts to reach the further remote node. The series of messages collectively covers a set of important routing points along a path from the originator to the recipient. The aggregate command responses to the series of PVP messages is analyzed to identify not only whether the entire path is operational, but also the location and nature of the problem.

摘要： Customer edge (CE) to CE device verification checks initiate routes from available CEs as a set of path verification messages, destined for remote CE routes serving a remote VPN. An extended community attribute, included among the attributes of the path verification message, stores the identity of the originating CE router. The path verification message propagates across the network, and transports the identity of the originating CE router because the originator identity is not overwritten by successive routing. Upon receipt by the remote CE, the originator is determinable from the extended community attribute. A further reachability field is also included in the extended community attribute and indicates whether per CE or per prefix is appropriate for the particular route in question. In this manner, CE-CE connectivity checks identify CEs which are reachable from other CEs. Accordingly, such a mechanism allows for route reachability aggregation on a per-CE or per-prefix reachability basis.

摘要： A data communication device (e.g., a router) originates a network configuration message in response to a network topology change or so as to refresh a configuration message. The data communication device encodes a timestamp in the network configuration message. The timestamp indicates a time of originating the network configuration message. Further, the data communication device transmits the network configuration message over the network to other network devices that, in turn, initiate further broadcast of at least a portion of contents of the network configuration message. Based on the timestamp of the network configuration message, the data communication devices receiving the network configuration message identify transmission time value indicating how long the network configuration message takes to be conveyed over the network to the other network devices. The data communication devices utilize the transmission time value as a timeout period for determining whether a data communication device failure occurs.

摘要： In one embodiment, a path computation element (PCE) in a computer network receives one or more path computation requests (PCReqs), and records a time of each PCReq and the corresponding requested bandwidth. Based on this information, the PCE may determine a traffic profile of the computer network, and may augment a traffic engineering database (TED) with requested bandwidth according to time based on the traffic profile. As such, prior to a particular time, the PCE may determine placement of tunnels within the traffic profile for the particular time.

摘要： In one embodiment, a particular device in a computer network maintains a locally owned tunnel-state table, and joins a distributed hash table (DHT) ring. In addition, the locally owned tunnel-state table is shared with other devices of the DHT ring to establish a DHT-owned tunnel-state table. The particular device (and other devices) determines ownership of link-state advertisements (LSAs) for a specific portion of a traffic engineering database (TED) according to the DHT ring. As such, when the particular device (or any device) computes a path for a tunnel using a local TED, the particular device may request permission to use resources along the computed path that were advertised in particular LSAs from owners of those particular LSAs when not owned by the particular device.

摘要： In one embodiment, a router in a non-originating domain receives a signal to establish a tunnel, the signal having an identification (ID) of an originating path computation element (PCE) of an originating domain from where the signal to establish the tunnel originated. In response to determining that establishment of the tunnel fails, the router may signal the failure of the establishment to a local PCE of the non-originating domain, the signaling indicating the ID of the originating PCE to cause the local PCE to provide updated routing information of the non-originating domain to the originating PCE.

摘要： In one embodiment, once activation of use of a backup tunnel is detected for a primary tunnel, then a level of congestion of the path of the backup tunnel may be determined. In response to the level being greater than a threshold, a head-end node of the primary tunnel is triggered to reroute the primary tunnel (e.g., requesting to a path computation element). Conversely, in response to the level not being greater than the threshold, the backup tunnel is allowed to remain activated.

摘要： A technique performs an efficient constrained shortest path first (CSPF) optimization of Traffic Engineering (TE) Label Switched Paths (LSPs) in a computer network. The novel CSPF technique is triggered upon the detection of an event in the computer network that could create a more optimal path, such as, e.g., a new or restored network element or increased path resources. Once the novel CSPF technique is triggered, the computing node (e.g., a head-end node of the TE-LSP or a Path Computation Element, PCE) determines the set of nodes adjacent to the event, and further determines which of those adjacent nodes are within the TE-LSP (“attached nodes”). The computing node performs a CSPF computation rooted at the closest attached node to determine whether a new computed path cost is less than a current path cost (e.g., by a configurable amount), and if so, triggers optimization of the TE-LSP along the new path.

摘要： A technique dynamically resizes Traffic Engineering (TE) Label Switched Paths (LSPs) at a head-end node of the TE-LSPs in preparation to receive redirected traffic in response to an event in a computer network. The novel dynamic TE-LSP resizing technique is based on the detection of an event in the network that could cause traffic destined for one or more other (“remote”) head-end nodes of one or more TE-LSPs to be redirected to an event-detecting (“local”) head-end node of one or more TE-LSPs. An example of such a traffic redirection event is failure of a remote head-end node or failure of any of its TE-LSPs. Specifically, the local head-end node maintains TE-LSP steady state sampling and resizing frequencies to adapt the bandwidth of its TE-LSP(s) to gradual changes in the network over time. Upon detection of an event identifying possible traffic redirection, the local head-end node enters a Fast Resize (FR) state, in which the sampling and resizing frequencies are increased to quickly adapt the TE-LSP bandwidth(s) to any received redirected traffic.

摘要： A local fast reroute (FRR) technique is implemented at the edge of a computer network. In accordance with the technique, if an edge device detects a node or link failure that prevents it from communicating with a neighboring routing domain, the edge device reroutes at least some data packets addressed to that domain to a backup edge device which, in turn, forwards the packets to the neighboring domain. The rerouted packets are designated as being “protected” (i.e., rerouted) data packets before they are forwarded to the backup edge device. The backup edge device identifies protected data packets as those which contain a predetermined “service” label in their MPLS label stacks. In other words, the service label is used as an identifier for packets that have been FRR rerouted. Upon receiving a data packet containing a service label, the backup edge device is not permitted to reroute the packet a second time, e.g., in response to another inter-domain node or link failure, thereby preventing loops from developing at the edge of the network.
