Abstract
A first network device includes a processor and a memory having computer readable instructions stored thereon that, when executed by the processor, cause the first network device to obtain a Flow Specification (FlowSpec) rule with redirect indication information. The redirect indication information includes identification information identifying a first virtual private network (VPN) instance configured on a second network device. The indication information also includes instructions for the second network device to redirect data stream matching the FlowSpec rule to the first VPN instance. The first network device is also caused to advertise the FlowSpec rule with the redirect indication information to the second network device.
