  • Patent number: 11863464
    Abstract: Management of a plurality of sub-tunnels is disclosed herein. Resource utilization of a plurality of sub-tunnels of a network tunnel implementing a Resource Reservation Protocol is monitored. A resource utilization of a first set of the sub-tunnels exceeding a defined utilization threshold is detected. As a result of the detection, an adjusted resource utilization is determined for a second set of the sub-tunnels. The resource utilization of the second set of sub-tunnels may be less than a defined utilization threshold. The adjusted resource utilization is established for the second set of sub-tunnels for a next measurement interval. The adjusted resource utilization of each sub-tunnel of the second subset of sub-tunnels may be less than a lowest resource utilization among the first set of sub-tunnels.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 11516123
    Abstract: Techniques for configuring a logical network switch in label-switched networks are provided. In some embodiments, a first network device in a label-switched network is configured with a network address. A second network device in the label-switched network is configured with the same network address. The first network device is configured to use a set of labels for a set of virtual local area networks (VLANs). The second network device is configured to use the same set of labels for the same set of VLANs. The configured first and second network devices appear as a logical network device from the perspective of other network devices in the label-switched network.
