INTEGRATING SECURITY SERVER POLICIES WITH OPTIMIZED ROUTING CONTROL
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method, comprising:
- determining a first set of one or more control policies at a control server of a network domain;
transmitting the first set of policies from the control server to a routing master controller of the network domain, the routing master controller having a second set of one or more traffic policies used to determine optimal paths for directing traffic through the domain; and
generating a third set of one or more integrated policies at the routing master controller based on the first and second sets of policies.

Abstract
In one embodiment, a first set of one or more control policies at a control server of a network domain may be transmitted to a routing master controller of the network domain, which uses a second set of one or more traffic policies to determine optimal paths for directing traffic through the domain. The routing master controller may then generate a third set of one or more integrated policies based on the first and second sets of policies, e.g., based on the knowledge and policies of both the control server and the routing master controller.

17. A system, comprising:
-
a control server of a network domain configured to determine a first set of one or more control policies; and a routing master controller of the network domain configured to receive the first set of control policies from the control server, the routing master controller having a second set of one or more traffic policies used to determine optimal paths for directing traffic through the domain;
the routing master controller configured to generate a third set of one or more integrated policies based on the first and second sets of policies. - View Dependent Claims (18)

19. An apparatus, comprising:
-
one or more network interfaces adapted to communicate with a control server and one or more routers of a network domain; a processor coupled to the network interfaces and adapted to execute one or more processes; and a memory adapted to store a routing master controller process executable by the processor, the routing master controller process when executed operable to;
i) receive a first set of one or more control policies from the control server;
ii) use a second set of one or more traffic policies to determine optimal paths for directing traffic through the domain; and
iii) generate a third set of one or more integrated policies based on the first and second sets of policies. - View Dependent Claims (20)
