    Abstract: In an example embodiment, a method is provided that assigns a sequence value to a host. The host is identified by a host network layer address. After the assignment, the host network layer address and the sequence value are included in an advertisement for transmission. In another example embodiment, another method is provided. Here, a first sequence value associated with the host network layer address is received from a network device. In addition, a second sequence value associated with the same host network layer address is received from a different network device. The first sequence value is ranked relative to the second sequence value and data is transmitted to the network device based on the ranking.

    Abstract: Systems, methods, and non-transitory computer-readable storage media for a miscabling detection protocol. One or more switches can periodically send miscabling protocol (MCP) packets on non-fabric ports on all configured EPG VLANs. A first switch located at a network fabric receives a miscabling protocol (MCP) packet indicating an identity of an originating switch and a port number of an originating port of the MCP packet via a receiving port on the first switch, wherein the MCP packet is received from an external network connected to the receiving port, and wherein the originating switch and originating port are also located at the network fabric and connected to the external network. Based on the MCP packet, the first switch then detects a loop between the receiving port, the originating port, and the external network. Next, the first switch blocks the receiving port or the originating port in response to detecting the loop.

    Abstract: In one embodiment, a subnet-scoped multicast packet is received on an interface of a forwarding device that is connected to a host device of a subnet of a forwarding domain. The received subnet-scoped multicast packet is transmitted from one or more other interfaces of the forwarding device that are connected to one or more other host devices of the subnet. The received subnet-scoped multicast packet is also encapsulated with an additional header. The encapsulated subnet-scoped multicast packet is forwarded from the forwarding device to an intermediate router which routes the encapsulated subnet-scoped multicast packet to one or more other forwarding devices configured to decapsulate the encapsulated subnet-scoped multicast packet and transmit the decapsulated subnet-scoped multicast packet to one or more connected host devices of an additional portion of the subnet.
