Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
A method, apparatus and computer program product for resolving conflicting unicast advertisements in transport network is presented. A particular Backbone Virtual Local Area Network (BVLAN) as a first BVLAN (BVLAN 1 ) on a first network device in a transport network. The first network device receives a first message from a second network device advertising a first Backbone Media Access Channel (BMAC) on a first BVLAN (BMAC 1 ,BVLAN 1 ). The first network device receives a second message from a third network device advertising the (BMAC 1 ,BVLAN 1 ). The (BMAC 1 ,BVLAN 1 ) is assigned to the device of the second network device and the third network device having a lower Identifier (ID) value, wherein the ID value comprises one of the group comprising an Intermediate System to Intermediate System (ISIS) system ID and a Shortest Path Bridging (SPB) bridge ID.
