The proposed methodology enables finding the most efficient roots in the network to carry multicast traffic, while further providing a theoretical basis for such selection. It guarantees the minimum expected delivery cost for multicast frames in the absence of any knowledge about the source and receivers.

Mechanism and framework for finding optimal multicast tree roots without the knowledge of traffic sources and receivers for Fabricpath and TRILL

A method of determining one or more sources for delivery of content corresponding to a website is disclosed. Content from a plurality of initial sources is received through an interface. The content comprises content of a plurality of webpages of a website. Performance of the plurality of initial sources in delivering the content is evaluated. At least some of the content is copied to an alternative source. The content from the alternative source is received through the interface. Performance of the alternative source in delivering the content is evaluated. A determination of whether the alternative source should replace at least some of the plurality of initial sources as a source for delivering content of the website is made. The determination is based at least in part on the evaluated performances.

A methodology is described for achieving efficient forwarder appointments. Such efficient appointment may provide an equal load on each participating routing bridge in the TRILL LAN. Load may be viewed as the number of VLANs for which a given node is an appointed forwarder. Furthermore, efficient appointment may be executed with a minimum of traffic disruption. Minimal disruption may be ensured by forwarder appointments by moving a minimum number of VLANs to ensure an equal load on each participating routing bridge.
