Abstract
A network element includes processing circuitry configured to cause the network element to determine whether a received information packet is a special packet based on whether a domain header of the received information packet includes a domain configuration group (DCG) address for a domain type of the network element in a destination address field of the domain header, the DCG address being indicative of an add command or a delete command, extract an identifier of a network domain from the domain header of the received information packet in response to determining that the received information packet is a special packet, and modify a forward information base at the network element based on the DCG address and the identifier of the network.
