Abstract: A controller includes a transceiver to establish a first session with a route reflector and monitor advertisements received by the route reflector from nodes in a network via second sessions established between the nodes and the route reflector. The controller also includes a processor to generate forwarding instructions for the nodes based on the advertisements. The forwarding instructions indicate one or more routes from a root node to one or more leaf nodes of a service. The transceiver provides the forwarding instructions to the root node. In some cases, the first session is established according to the border gateway protocol (BGP) and the one or more second sessions are established according to the BGP. The controller determines that the one or more leaf nodes are registered for one or more virtual private network (VPN) services based on the advertisements.

Abstract: Various example embodiments for supporting packet routing in a communication system may be configured to, in a communication network, support use of primary routing paths for routing traffic in the communication network and use of controller provided protection paths configured to protect the primary paths based on rerouting of traffic around failures in the communication network. Various example embodiments for supporting packet routing in a communication system may be configured to support controller provided protection paths in a communication network based on use of path control capabilities in which a network controller computes paths for a network and configures the paths in the network based on configuration of the paths on nodes of the network and based on routing capabilities in which the nodes use the routing paths for routing of traffic (e.g., via primary paths) and rerouting of traffic (e.g., via controller provided protection paths).

Abstract: A processor generates an abstract topology that represents domains in an actual topology of a network and border routers that interconnect the domains in the actual topology. The processor prunes, based on the abstract topology, one or more of the domains from the actual topology during path calculations on the actual topology. In some cases, the processor determines measures of reachability for the nodes to indicate whether the domains represented by the nodes represent are on a path from a source domain to a destination domain. The processor can then selectively prune a relationship to at least one edge in the actual topology or modify weights of edges between the nodes in the actual topology based on the ranks of the nodes in the abstract topology.

Abstract: A method is provided for a simulated conversation by a pre-recorded audio navigator, with particular application to informational and entertainment settings. A monitor may utilize a navigation interface to select pre-recorded responses in the voice of a character represented by a performer. The pre-recorded responses may then be queued and sent to a speaker proximate to the performer. By careful organization of an audio database including audio buckets and script-based navigation with shifts for tailoring to specific guest user profiles and environmental contexts, a convincing and dynamic simulated conversation may be carried out while providing the monitor with a user-friendly navigation interface. Thus, highly specialized training is not necessary and flexible scaling to large-scale deployments is readily supported.
