Methods and systems for network traffic routing

摘要

Systems, methods, and tangible computer-readable media are described for network routing of traffic. The system includes a source node for multicast traffic assignment across multiple networks. The source node chooses a first node and at least one different node for transmitting a message, the message to be transmitted from the source node to the first node, then to the at least one different node, then to a destination node.

1. A system for routing of traffic, the system comprising:
a source node for multicast traffic assignment across multiple networks; inter-partition gateway notes, wherein the multiple networks or portions of the networks are divided into partitions and are connected by the inter-partition gateway nodes; wherein the source node chooses a first node and at least one different node for transmitting a message, the message to be transmitted from the source node to the first node, then to the at least one different node, then to a destination node; wherein the nodes of the system are configured to advertise their subscribers; and wherein each inter-partition gateway node aggregates subscriber information it hears on its RF interfaces, and then advertises aggregated information back through the RF interfaces based on aggregation rules, wherein the aggregation rules comprise a rule in which aggregated subscriber information from a first RF interface of the inter-partition gateway is sent via the a second RF interface of the inter-partition gateway if the subscriber information is not already in an aggregation table for the second RF interface and if the subscriber information is not for a partition already associated with the interface.
