  • Discovering IP Multicast Group Memberships in Software Defined Networks
    Publication number: 20150222446
    Abstract: Provided is a method of discovering multicast group memberships in a software defined network. A multicast group membership query message is sent only to a selected network device in the network. The network device forwards the multicast group membership query message to a host computer system connected to the network device and recognizes a multicast group membership request from the host computer system in response to the group membership query message.

  • Convergence of multicast traffic in response to a topology change
    Patent number: 8654769
    Abstract: A method for convergence of multicast traffic in response to a topology change. The method includes, in response to a change in a multicast topology, redirecting multicast traffic through a network device of a plurality of network devices in the multicast topology and determining a querier status of the network device. The method also includes flooding the multicast traffic through an interface to the network device to facilitate convergence of the multicast traffic. The interface is a connecting point between the network device and another network device of the plurality of network devices.
