Abstract

In one example, a network device within a network domain determines routing information to exchange in a network. The network domain corresponds to an actual entity and includes a structure with a plurality of domains arranged in hierarchical levels corresponding to a hierarchy of entities of the actual entity. The routing information indicates at least one domain and hierarchical level of the structure. The network device exchanges the routing information in the network to control routing through the entities of the actual entity.
