Transforming a multi-level hybrid hierarchical forwarding information base format
Abstract:
A network device may receive forwarding data associated with a multi-level hybrid hierarchy forwarding information base of the network device. The network device may process the forwarding data to generate a first set of transformed forwarding next hop entries. The network device may process the first set of transformed forwarding next hop entries, associated with default forwarding classes, to generate a second set of transformed forwarding next hop entries. The network device may process the first set of transformed forwarding next hop entries, associated with all classes of traffic, to generate a third set of transformed forwarding next hop entries. The network device may group the sets of transformed forwarding next hop entries, based on transformed group next hop entries, to generate a final set of transformed forwarding next hop entries. The network device may transform the final set of transformed forwarding next hop entries into a particular format.
