Patent number: 12255976Abstract: In one embodiment, Ethernet Virtual Private Network (EVPN) is implemented using Internet Protocol Version 6 (IPv6) Segment Routing (SRv6) underlay network and SRv6-enhanced Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) signaling. A particular route associated with a particular Internet Protocol Version 6 (IPv6) Segment Routing (SRv6) Segment Identifier (SID) is advertised in a particular route advertisement message of a routing protocol (e.g., BGP). The SID includes encoding representing a particular Ethernet Virtual Private Network (EVPN) Layer 2 (L2) flooding Segment Routing end function of the particular router and a particular Ethernet Segment Identifier (ESI), with the particular SID including a routable prefix to the particular router. The particular router receives a particular packet including the particular SID; and in response, the particular router performs the particular EVPN end function on the particular packet.Type: GrantFiled: July 27, 2023Date of Patent: March 18, 2025Assignee: Cisco Technology, Inc.Inventors: Patrice Brissette, Clarence Filsfils, Darren Dukes, Gaurav Dawra, Francois Clad, Pablo Camarillo Garvia

Patent number: 9918217Abstract: Fast roaming across a network fabric may be provided. A route device may receive location information corresponding to a client device in response to roaming by the client device from a first access point connected to a first network device to a second access point connected to a second network device. The first network device and the second network device may comprise fabric edge nodes on the fabric network. The first network device and the second network device may be ones of a plurality of network devices in the fabric network. On detecting the roaming of the client device, the route device may be updated with the new location, and then the route device may send, to the plurality of network devices in the fabric network, the location information corresponding to the client device.Type: GrantFiled: January 13, 2017Date of Patent: March 13, 2018Assignee: Cisco Technology, Inc.Inventors: Sanjay Kumar Hooda, Gaurav Dawra, Sudhir Kumar Jain, Atri Indiresan
