Abstract:
A network device includes a control unit configured to execute an extended layer three (L3) routing protocol within a control plane of the network device. The extended L3 routing protocol is extended to process a routing protocol control message having a set of layer two (L2) identifiers of customer devices attached to an autonomous system (AS) and an indicator that specifies a Route Target associated with a Virtual Private Local Area Network Service (VPLS) domain within the AS. The routing protocol control message conforms to a message type of the L3 routing protocol to initiate a flush of the set of L2 identifiers.
