    Abstract: Methods and systems are described herein for reducing border gateway protocol (BGP) signaling for multi-homed devices. In one aspect, the method comprises: receiving one or more signals from one or more provider edge devices. The one or more signals include an address of a membership group associated with a multi-homed device. A router receives, from a provider edge device of the one or more provider edge devices, a service prefix. The service prefix is associated with the multi-homed device and the membership group. The router may store the service prefix and the one or more provider edge devices and connect, according to the service prefix and the one or more provider edge devices, to the multi-homed device associated with the membership group.
