VIRTUAL NETWORK DEVICE CLUSTERS

Several different spanning trees are calculated for a network. The network has several different ingress points via which packets can enter the network. Each of the spanning trees is associated with (at least) one of the ingress points, such that different spanning trees are associated with differen...

Zusammenfassung:Several different spanning trees are calculated for a network. The network has several different ingress points via which packets can enter the network. Each of the spanning trees is associated with (at least) one of the ingress points, such that different spanning trees are associated with different ingress points. Packets that enter the network via a particular ingress point are forwarded through the network according to the spanning tree associated with that particular ingress point.
