  • Extending Media Access Control Security (MACsec) to Network-to-Network Interfaces (NNIs)
    Patent number: 11659002
    Abstract: Systems and methods for enabling Media Access Control Security (MACsec) at a MAC layer, according to IEEE 802.1AE, and extending MACsec are provided. An edge device, according to one implementation, includes one or more User-to-Network Interface (UNI) ports and a plurality of Network-to-Network Interface (NNI) ports. The edge device also includes a processing device and a memory device configured to store a computer program having instructions. The instructions, when executed, allow the processing device to provide network security on a Media Access Control (MAC) layer, the network security defined by the MAC Security (MACsec) protocol. The instructions also allow the processing device to provide network path protection by enabling packet routing over multiple paths via the plurality of NNI ports on a network layer.
