| 20140198808 | LEARNING A MAC ADDRESS - A method and edge device for learning a Medium Access Control (MAC) address, applied in an edge device in a layer-2 virtual interconnection network of data centers. According to an example, based on an Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) request message from a first node to a second node, a session cache item is created in a control plane of the edge device. The session cache item includes: IP address of the second node, IP address of the first node, and a first relationship between a MAC address of the first node and an output port corresponding to the MAC address of the first node. Based on an ARP response message from the second node to the first node, the session cache item having the IP address of the first node and the IP address of the second node is updated. The updated session cache item further includes: a second relationship between a MAC address of the second node and an output port corresponding to the MAC address of the second node. The ARP response message is then forwarded via the output port corresponding to the MAC address of the first node in the first relationship in the session cache item. The first relationship and the second relationship are then provided to a data plane of the edge device to facilitate data packet forwarding between the first node and the second node. | 07-17-2014 |
