摘要： An mLDP failover using fast notification packets. In one embodiment of a process for mLDP failover using fast notification packets, a first network node detects a failure of a second network node or a communication link coupled to the second network node. In response to detecting the failure, the first network node sends a packet to a third network node, wherein the packet comprises a notification of link or node failure and information identifying a multipoint label switched path (MLSP) that is configured to transmit multicast data packets of a multicast data stream.

摘要： Upon detection of a new traffic flow, a registration node can dynamically register the new traffic flow with a key server policy manager by sending a registration request on behalf of the new traffic flow. A registration request indicates the new traffic flow should be protected by a security group. A registration request may also include a request to dynamically generate a new security group to protect the traffic flow. The registration request is received by a key server policy manager, which performs authentication and authorization checks of the requesting registration node, and determines whether to accept or reject the registration request. If accepted, the key server policy manager registers the new traffic flow by including a description of the traffic flow in a group policy of an existing security group or a newly created security group, depending on the registration request.

摘要： Various devices and methods for implementing multicast over a label-switched core network are disclosed. For example, an edge node can include a physical interface, which is not enabled for multicast, that is configured to be coupled to a core network and a packet rewrite module coupled to the physical interface. The packet rewrite module is configured to encapsulate a multicast packet with a label and to send the encapsulated multicast packet to the physical interface. The label identifies a unicast label switched path (LSP) through the core network. The edge node can also include a virtual interface creation configured to create a virtual interface that is enabled for multicast. The packet rewrite module can encapsulate the multicast packet in response to detecting that the multicast packet is being sent via the virtual interface.

摘要： Techniques reliably provide the switchover from a default MDT to the data MDT by using reliable signaling and reliable building of a data MDT. The message notifying of the pending switchover to the data MDT is reliably sent using signaling that is reliable. Also, the switchover from the default MDT to the data MDT does not happen until all egress routers have responded to the message. Egress routers join the data MDT if associated receivers are interested in receiving the multicast stream from a source. The router does not send another response upstream until all egress routers downstream from it respond to the message in the positive or the negative.

摘要： An apparatus or method for upstream label allocation on LANs for multipoint (MP) label switched paths (LSPs). In one embodiment of the method, a first router receives a first incoming labeled data packet, wherein the first incoming labeled data packet comprises a first data packet and one or more first labels. The first router creates a first outgoing labeled data packet, wherein creating the first outgoing labeled data packet includes the step of swapping the one or more first labels of the first incoming labeled data packet with a context label and a forwarding label, wherein the first outgoing labeled data packet comprises the first data packet, the context label, and the forwarding label. Ultimately, the first router transmits the first outgoing labeled data packet to second and third routers via a LAN.

摘要： Various systems and methods for rerouting multicast traffic in response to detecting imminent network disruption are disclosed. One method involves detecting an imminent topology change and, in response, identifying a new multicast distribution tree for a multicast group. A join message for the multicast group is then sent towards a root of the new multicast distribution tree. Multicast traffic addressed to the multicast group continues to be forwarded via the current multicast distribution tree, subsequent to sending the join message. The multicast traffic is not forwarded via the new multicast distribution tree until one or more multicast data packets have been received via the new multicast distribution tree.

摘要： A multicast transmission scheme is introduced. A multicast data stream is sent on a default tunnel and switched to a data tunnel during flooding conditions. The default tunnel is a point-to-multipoint tunnel from, for example, a source provider edge router to all other provider edge routers in a virtual private network. The data tunnel is a point-to-multipoint tunnel from, for example, a source provider edge router to other provider edge routers that have recipients. Flooding conditions can occur when sending the multicast data stream on the default tunnel, for example, when a specified bandwidth threshold has been exceeded on a source provider edge router. Additionally, the data tunnel is created by selecting a multicast distribution tunnel group from a configured pool of addresses, advertising the group, receiving data joins from, for example, provider edge routers with recipients, and waiting a specified send time.
