Configuring a topology of devices to support scaling of an exchange point

Abstract:

A network device may receive, from client devices, route information for one or more sets of routes. The network device may provide, based on receiving the route information, a request for route distribution instructions, which may cause a server device to provide the network device with the route distribution instructions. The network device may process the route distribution instructions to identify the one or more subsets of the route information that are to be distributed amongst network devices that are configured with route reflection capabilities. The network device may provide, using route reflection capabilities, the one or more subsets of the route information to the network devices based on the route distribution instructions. The network devices may use the one or more subsets of the route information and route copy instructions to generate route copy information for the one or more subsets of route information.
