METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR ASSIGNING IPV6 LINK STATE IDENTIFIERS

摘要

In one embodiment, a link state advertisement is generated. A first value and a second value are read from the link state advertisement. The first value and the second value are combined to create a combined value. The combined value is input to a hash algorithm that performs a hash function on the combined value to produce a resulting value. The resulting value is used as a link state identifier of the link state advertisement.
