LDP Extensions for Optimized MAC Address Withdrawal in a Hierarchical Virtual Private LAN Service (H-VPLS)

Abstract: RFC 4762 describes a mechanism to remove or unlearn Media Access Control (MAC) addresses that have been dynamically learned in a Virtual Private LAN Service (VPLS) instance for faster convergence on topology changes. The procedure also removes MAC addresses in the VPLS that do not require relearning due to such topology changes. This document defines an enhancement to the MAC address withdraw procedure with an empty MAC list (RFC 4762); this enhancement enables a Provider Edge (PE) device to remove only the MA… Show more

“…The specification of applications and the allowed control plane packets are outside the scope of this document. If the PW is a spoke in H-VPLS, any Media Access Control (MAC) addresses learned via the PW SHOULD be flushed when it transitions to standby state, according to the procedures in RFC 4762 [3] and in [10].…”

“…This is accomplished by sending an LDP Address Withdraw Message with a MAC List TLV containing the MAC addresses to be removed from all other Provider Edge nodes over the LDP sessions. [RFC7361] describes an optimized MAC withdrawal mechanism that can be used to remove only the set of MAC addresses that need to be relearned in H-VPLS networks. [RFC7361] also describes optimized MAC withdrawal operations in PBB-VPLS networks.…”
