A network device may receive, from client devices, route information for one or more sets of routes. The network device may provide, based on receiving the route information, a request for route distribution instructions, which may cause a server device to provide the network device with the route distribution instructions. The network device may process the route distribution instructions to identify the one or more subsets of the route information that are to be distributed amongst network devices that are configured with route reflection capabilities. The network device may provide, using route reflection capabilities, the one or more subsets of the route information to the network devices based on the route distribution instructions. The network devices may use the one or more subsets of the route information and route copy instructions to generate route copy information for the one or more subsets of route information.

Configuring a topology of devices to support scaling of an exchange point

A provider edge device, capable of accessing a first type of memory and a second type of memory, may determine a network address associated with a customer edge device. The provider edge device may determine whether the customer edge device is categorized as a leaf device in an Ethernet Tree service provided by the provider edge device. The provider edge device may selectively store the network address in the first type of memory or the second type of memory based on determining whether the customer edge device is categorized as a leaf device in the Ethernet Tree service.
