Managing multiple forwarding information bases

摘要

In some implementations, a method for routing a communication includes receiving, from an application running on a user equipment (UE), a request to access a forwarding information base (FIB). The UE includes a plurality of FIBs and a plurality of communication interfaces. Each of the plurality of FIBs includes communication interface information. An assigned FIB from the plurality of FIBs is determined. The assigned FIB has been assigned to the application. An appropriate communication interface for communication is determined based on a destination of the communication and the communication interface information of the assigned FIB. The communication is transmitted to the destination using the communication interface.

1. A method for routing a communication, comprising:
receiving, from an application running on a user equipment (UE), a request to access a forwarding information base (FIB), the UE including a plurality of FIBs and a plurality of communication interfaces, each of the plurality of FIBs including communication interface information; determining an assigned FIB from the plurality of FIBs, the assigned FIB having been assigned to the application; determining an appropriate communication interface from the plurality of communication interfaces of the UE for communication based on a destination of the communication and the communication interface information of the assigned FIB; transmitting the communication to the destination using the appropriate communication interface; and wherein the FIB comprises a first FIB, the application comprises a first application, and determining an interface for the communication comprises:
determining the first FIB identifies a second FIB from the plurality of FIBs, wherein the second FIB is assigned to a second application;determining the interface based on the second FIB and the destination; andtransmitting the communication through an encrypted tunnel using the interface identified in the second FIB.
