    Abstract: Methods and apparatus are provided for virtual device context (VDC) integration for network services. VDC integration for network services generally includes mapping a virtual switch, physical ports on the network switch assigned to the virtual switch, a service node and a physical port on a service node to share a common VDC associated with a configuration of the virtual switch. In this manner, the VDC concept is extended to the service node and the network may be easily managed, with a network switch and associated service nodes configured through a single processing system on the network switch or service node.

    Abstract translation: 为网络服务的虚拟设备上下文(VDC)集成提供了方法和设备。 用于网络服务的VDC集成通常包括映射虚拟交换机,分配给虚拟交换机的网络交换机上的物理端口,服务节点上的服务节点和物理端口,以共享与虚拟交换机的配置相关联的公共VDC。 以这种方式,通过在网络交换机或服务节点上通过单个处理系统配置的网络交换机和相关联的服务节点,将VDC概念扩展到服务节点并且可以容易地管理网络。

    Abstract: A method is provided in one example and includes broadcasting a switching node identifier associated with a first link-state protocol enabled switching node to a plurality of link-state protocol enabled switching nodes. The plurality of link-state protocol enabled switching nodes are in communication with one another by a link-state protocol cloud. The method further includes broadcasting a priority associated with the first link-state protocol enabled switching node to the plurality of link-state protocol enabled switching nodes. The method further includes broadcasting connectivity information of the first link-state protocol enabled switching node to the plurality of link-state protocol enabled switching nodes using the link-state protocol cloud. The connectivity information includes connectivity of the first link-state protocol enabled switching node with at least one spanning tree protocol enabled switching node.

    Abstract: In one embodiment, a solution is provided wherein a volume hierarchy may be received at a network device in a storage area network. Once the network device is ready to apply the volume hierarchy, a message so indicating may be sent. Later, a command to apply the volume hierarchy may be received and the volume hierarchy may be applied so that the network device processes IOs using the volume hierarchy.

    Abstract: In one embodiment, a method comprises determining, by a first networking device, that a first subflow of a multipath transmission control protocol (MPTCP) connection has been established between a first internet protocol (IP) address of a first computing device and an IP address of a second computing device, wherein the first computing device is multihomed to the first networking device and a second networking device. The method also includes determining, by the first or second networking device, a request to establish a second subflow of the MPTCP connection between a second IP address of the first computing and the IP address of the second computing device. In addition, the method includes advertising, by the first networking device, a primary IP address (PIP) of the first networking device for the first subflow and advertising, by the second networking device, a PIP of the second networking device for the second subflow.
