Problems solved by technology

However these broadcast and / or flooding mechanisms lead to size limitations on enterprise networks because as the enterprise network grows, such broadcast and / or flood traffic consumes a significant portion of the overall network capacity
This consumption often makes enterprise networks inefficient in transmitting data traffic

Embodiment Construction

[0016] In some embodiments, an enterprise network includes a core network node operatively coupled to a set of network nodes including a set of wired network nodes and a set of wireless network nodes. A network node of the set of network nodes is configured to receive a broadcast signal from a host device operatively coupled to the network node. The network node is then configured to send the broadcast signal to the core network node via the tunnel such that network nodes of the reorganized network nodes not included in the tunnel do not receive the broadcast signal. The broadcast signal may be sent via a multiprotocol label switching (MPLS) tunnel or an Ethernet tunnel over Layer 3, including an aggregation network node originating from the set of network nodes operatively coupled between the core network node and the network node. Also, the broadcast signal may be transmitted via one of a plurality of paths included in the tunnel. In response to receiving the broadcast sign...

Abstract

In some embodiments, an apparatus comprises a core network node configured to be operatively coupled to a set of network nodes. The core network node is configured to receive a broadcast signal from a network node from the set of network nodes, which is originated from a host device operatively coupled to the network node. The broadcast signal is sent via a tunnel from the network node to the core network node, such that other network nodes that are not included in the tunnel do not receive the broadcast signal. The core network node is configured to retrieve control information associated with the broadcast signal without sending another broadcast signal, and then send the control information to the network node.
