BORDER GATEWAY PROTOCOL (BGP) - SHORTEST PATH FIRST (SPF) FLOODING REDUCTION

A method for reducing flooding in a Border Gateway Protocol-Shortest Path First (BGP-SPF) domain implemented by a network node. The network node obtains a flooding topology (FT) of the BGP-SPF domain. When there is a link change, the network node transmits Network Layer Reachability Information (NLR...

Zusammenfassung:A method for reducing flooding in a Border Gateway Protocol-Shortest Path First (BGP-SPF) domain implemented by a network node. The network node obtains a flooding topology (FT) of the BGP-SPF domain. When there is a link change, the network node transmits Network Layer Reachability Information (NLRI) in a BGP update message indicating the link change to network nodes that are directly connected to the network node on the FT.
