  • Linked identifiers for multiple domains
    Patent number: 9647876
    Abstract: A method for providing a link identifier (LID), wherein the method comprises obtaining a first identifier block (IDB) that identifies an external interface within a first domain using a first identifying scheme, obtaining a second IDB that identifies a second external interface within a second domain using a second identifying scheme, creating the LID that comprises the first IDB and the second IDB, and advertising the LID to one or more external entities.
    Type: Grant

  • Wireless mesh routing protocol utilizing hybrid link state algorithms
    Publication number: 20110090834
    Abstract: Systems and methods are described for exchanging and determining routes in packet-switched mesh networks. Nodes in the mesh networks may be coupled via wireless and fixed-wire links. Routing protocols used to determine routes include link state protocols and hybrids of link state and path vector protocols. Type-Length-Value formats are provided to facilitate state information for nodes in the packet switched network, allowing paths to be re-routed through the mesh networks in real-time.
