Abstract

Servicing a pseudowire communication across multiple Administrative Systems (AS) by components of packet data networks. A first Provider Edge (PE) router of a first AS receives a first Interior Gateway Protocol (IGP) message from a source PE router of the first AS that includes pseudowire data. The first PE router creates a first Border Gateway Protocol Link State (BGP-LS) message that includes the pseudowire data and transmits the first BGP-LS message to a second PE router of a second AS and intended for a destination PE router of the second AS. The first PE router then receives a second BGP-LS message from the second PE router that includes modified pseudowire data. The first PE router creates a second IGP message that includes the modified pseudowire data and transmits the second IGP message to the source PE router.
