Abstract:
In one embodiment, a method is performed. A spine node in communication with a network may determine a subtree of a shadow cone of the spine node. The subtree may comprise a plurality of nodes and a plurality of links connecting pairs of the nodes. The spine node may determine a disaggregated route to a first leaf node to which a disaggregated prefix may be attached. The disaggregated route may be propagated to the plurality of the nodes of the subtree.
