Deploying Multicast Communication over MPLS Networks Using Tree Numbering
Bibliographic record
Abstract
A new scheme for deploying multicasting in MPLS networks is proposed. Each possible tree in an MPLS network is assigned a number, which is then used to classify the corresponding multicast session into its FEC. We call this approach tree numbering (TN). It provides the capability to aggregate different multicast flows (sessions) having the same tree "shape". The assigned number is calculated distributedly by adding the partial weight values generated by the LSRs and the ingress LER of the corresponding tree. The key point in our approach is that the assigned numbers needed to distinguish the "shapes" of all the possible trees depend on the number of possible egress LERs could be reached by that ingress LERs and not on the number of the LSRs (core routers). In terms of the memory size, the proposed approach outperforms the approach that stores the IP addresses of the multicast tree or the one that store the concatenation of the sub codes generated by the ingress LER and the LSRs.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
