Abstract: The present application is directed towards distributing multicast routing packets in a cluster environment utilizing link aggregation. In a cluster environment, a plurality of devices may be connected to an upstream router or switch as a single “virtual” device having a plurality of connections as part of a link aggregation group, allowing the router to easily and efficiently distribute packets among the connections. Multicast routing packets may be sent via only a single connection of the link aggregation group, and accordingly, a recipient device may distribute the multicast routing packet to other devices. To distinguish between a newly received routing packet from the router and an internally distributed routing packet from a first device, the first device may insert a predetermined identifier into a MAC address of the routing packet.

Abstract: A method for managing a mobile device handoff from a macro base station to a Femto Base Station includes receiving periodically a subscriber list from each of neighboring Femto Base Stations by the Macro Base Station. The method also includes storing Femto Base Station information and corresponding subscriber list and establishing connection with the mobile device. Further, the method includes identifying the mobile device to a corresponding Femto Base Station. The method includes transmitting a unicast message to the mobile device. Furthermore, the method includes receiving a scan request by Macro Base Station from the mobile device and sending scan response by the Macro Base Station to the mobile device. Further, the method includes receiving a handoff request from the mobile device and sending a handoff response to the mobile device. The system includes a macro base station for receiving periodically a subscriber list from neighboring Femto Base Stations.
