Methods, Systems, and Computer Program Products for Assigning an Interface Identifier to a Network Interface

摘要

Methods and systems are described for assigning an interface identifier to a network interface. In one aspect, a count of network interfaces is detected in a first region of a network that includes a first network interface for operatively coupling a first node to the first region. A threshold condition is determined, based on the count. A first interface identifier is identified that meets, based on a size attribute of the first interface identifier, the threshold condition. The first interface identifier is provided as an identifier of the first network interface.

1. A method for assigning an interface identifier to a network interface, the method comprising:
detecting a count of network interfaces in a first region, of a network, that includes a first network interface operatively coupling a first node to the first region; determining, based on the count, a threshold condition; identifying a first interface identifier that meets, based on a size attribute of the first interface identifier, the threshold condition; and providing the first interface identifier as an identifier of the first network interface, wherein performing at least one element identified as comprising the method includes execution of an instruction by a processor.
