SEGMENT ROUTING LABEL SWITCH PATHS IN NETWORK FUNCTIONS VIRTUALIZATION COMMUNICATIONS NETWORKS |
摘要 |
A method is provided in one example embodiment and includes receiving a request to create a path through a network, wherein the path originates on a first network device and terminates on the second network device; identifying a first controller associated with the first network device, wherein the first controller proxies control plane functions for the first network device; identifying a second controller associated with the second network device, wherein the second controller proxies control plane functions for the second network device; and computing the path using the first controller as a source and the second controller as a destination. The first controller installs the computed path on the first network device and the second controller installs the computed path on the second network device. |
