DISTRIBUTED LABEL ASSIGNMENT FOR LABELED ROUTING PROTOCOL ROUTES

摘要

In general, various aspects of the techniques are described in this disclosure for distributed label assignment for labeled routes. In one example, a method includes obtaining, by a first thread of a plurality of execution threads for at least one routing protocol process executing on processing circuitry of a network device, an allocation of first labels drawn from a label space for a network service; adding, by the first thread, the first labels to a first local label pool for the first thread; generating, by the first thread, after obtaining the allocation of the first labels, a labeled route comprising a route for the network service and a label assigned by the first thread from the first local label pool; and outputting, by the network device, the labeled route.
