Abstract
Systems, methods, and devices for securely adding multihomed CE devices are provided herein. A MAC address for a second networking device connected to a networking device is received at the networking device via an Ethernet segment. The networking device generates a secure-type Ethernet segment identifier (ESI) for the second networking device. The networking device transmits the secure-type ESI to a third networking device. The secure-type ESI indicates that a port to the second networking device by the third networking device is to be kept operationally down until the second networking device is authenticated. The networking device authenticates the second networking device and sends the secure-type ESI in a subsequent message to indicate that authentication has been completed for the second networking device by the networking device. The subsequent message instructs the third networking device to make the port operational.
