    Abstract: Methods and system are disclosed which can simplify the configuration of a MCEC in a fabric environment such that is may become automatic. Furthermore, centralized identities (such as a host tracking database and/or a network controlled) may be employed to detect the presence of a MCEC. Requiring the creation of direct links between network devices participating in the MCEC may be avoided. Furthermore, logical L2 fabric connectivity (over a L3 fabric underlay) may be utilized to provide dual homing active-active services without additional configuration, as the tracking of peer network devices may be performed in a centralized manner. For example, a host tracking database or a network controller may be employed for peer tracking.

    Abstract translation: 公开了可以简化在织物环境中的MCEC的配置的方法和系统,使得可以变得自动化。 此外,可以采用集中式身份(例如主机跟踪数据库和/或网络控制)来检测MCEC的存在。 可以避免在参与MCEC的网络设备之间创建直接链路。 此外,可以利用逻辑L2架构连接(通过L3架构底层)来提供双重归属活动主动服务而无需附加配置,因为对等网络设备的跟踪可以以集中的方式执行。 例如,可以采用主机跟踪数据库或网络控制器来进行对等跟踪。

    Abstract: Methods and systems are provided for virtual expansion of a fabric network edge to include edge network devices. For example, unique virtual Internet Protocol (IP) addresses may be assigned to a plurality of L2 switches, wherein the L2 switches are connected to one or more fabric edge devices in a fabric, and wherein the L2 switches are located outside of the fabric. Next, the unique virtual IP addresses may be announced in an underlay of the fabric.

    Abstract: Methods and systems are provided for detecting overlay end points which are a single physical hop away and employing a simplified overlay header instead of a regular overlay header for communications with the identified end points. The simplified overlay header may carry overlay protocol related forwarding and peer information and may be designed to carry locally significant forwarding information which avoids overlay lookup related overhead on encapsulation and decapsulation operations. The simplified overlay header may be handled in the same forwarding pipeline pass as the handling of the inner frame and may work across different forwarding engines. Upon detection of a single hop link/keepalive failure, the backup overlay (original overlay header) may be used for forwarding.

    Abstract translation: 提供了用于检测作为单个物理跳越的重叠端点的方法和系统,并且采用简化的覆盖报头而不是用于与所识别的端点进行通信的常规覆盖报头。 简化的覆盖报头可以携带覆盖协议相关的转发和对等信息,并且可以被设计为承载本地有效的转发信息,这避免了在封装和解封装操作上的覆盖查找相关开销。 简化的覆盖报头可以处理在与内部帧的处理相同的转发流水线中,并且可以跨不同的转发引擎工作。 在检测到单跳链路/保活性故障时,可以使用备份覆盖(原始覆盖报头)进行转发。
