IMPLEMENTING BORDER GATEWAY PROTOCOL (BGP) OPTIMAL ROUTE REFLECTION

A method for distributing an optimal path to a router using a route reflector, that includes obtaining, by the route reflector, a path location bitmask associated with the optimal path, obtaining a router location bitmask associated with the router, performing a bitwise AND operation on the path loc...

Zusammenfassung:	A method for distributing an optimal path to a router using a route reflector, that includes obtaining, by the route reflector, a path location bitmask associated with the optimal path, obtaining a router location bitmask associated with the router, performing a bitwise AND operation on the path location bitmask and the router location bitmask to obtain a result bitmask, identifying a nonzero bit in the result bitmask, and in response to identifying the nonzero bit, sending the optimal path to the router.
