DUPLICATE ADDRESS DETECTION BASED ON DISTRIBUTED BLOOM FILTER

摘要

In one embodiment, a method comprises: generating, by a first network device in a network, a Bloom filter bit vector representing device addresses of devices having attached to at least one of the first network device or a second network device in the network; and determining whether a new device address is not a duplicate of any of the device addresses in the network based on the Bloom filter bit vector.
