Abstract: First and second egress nodes are each multi-homed to a customer edge (CE) that participates in virtual routing and forwarding (VRF). First forwarding information is configured on the first egress node. The first information includes VRF labels and defines forwarding of traffic based on the VRF labels and a status of a primary path to the CE. The VRF labels include a per-VRF label for the VRF and a per-CE label for the CE. Second forwarding information is configured on the second egress node. The second forwarding information includes the per-VRF label and the per-CE label, and defines traffic forwarding based on the VRF labels. Upon receiving traffic for the CE that carries the per-VRF label, the first egress node determines the status of the primary path, and forwards the traffic to either the CE over the primary path or to the second egress node, depending on the status.

Abstract: In one embodiment, a network controller identifies a first sign of life for an edge device in a communication network (e.g., when the network controller receives an encapsulated workflow request for the edge device over a control plane of the communication network). The network controller further imports the encapsulated workflow request from the edge device over the control plane, determines configuration parameters for a tenant and a tenant network from the encapsulated workflow request, and transmits the configuration parameters to the edge device to provision the edge device for the tenant according to the configuration parameters.

Abstract: Techniques are provided for optimizing multicast routing in a network. At a router device, a message is sent to one or more physical devices. The message is configured to solicit a response indicating a network assignment for each of the physical devices. A response message is received from each of the physical devices. The response message comprises network assignment information for each of the physical devices. For each of the physical devices, the network assignment information is translated into a segment identifier. The segment identifier is distributed to other router devices in the network.

Abstract: A method and apparatus to provide network-wide enhanced load balancing. In one embodiment a first message comprising a first value and an address is generated. The first message is transmitted to a first node via a first communication link. A second message comprising a second value and the address is generated. The first and second values are unequal. The second message is transmitted to the first node via a second communication link. Packets are received, wherein each of the packets comprises the address. A first percentage of the packets are forwarded to a first device via the first communication link, wherein the first percentage is proportional to the first value. A second percentage of the packets are forwarded to a second device via the second communication link, wherein the second percentage is proportional to the second value.

Abstract: Apparatuses and methods are provided in which a CE protocol communication session is established, at a first provider edge network device (PE), for customer equipment device (CE) multi-homed to the first PE and one or more second PEs. The first PE is an owner of the CE protocol communication session. The first PE signals to the one or more second PEs an ownership message indicating that the first PE is the owner of the CE protocol communication session. The ownership message includes parameters that enable one or more second PEs to install in their respective forwarding tables a redirect policy to instruct the respective PE to forward packets of this session to the first PE via an overlay segment. The first PE receives the packets of the session via the overlay segment based on the ownership message.
