IPv6 Prefix announcement for routing-based Gateways in shared environments

摘要

Method and system to distribute routing information in an IPv6 network, comprising a Remote Gateway (RG) with at least two WAN interfaces establishing at least two IPv6 connections with at least two Broadband Network Gateways (BNG) between a SOHO network and the Internet, wherein the first RG WAN interfaces act as a host by accepting route advertisements (RA) from the first BNG, and wherein the second RG WAN interface act as router by advertising route advertisements to the second BNG, causing an adoption of a routing behaviour of the second BNG.
