Abstract: L'invention concerne une technique de gestion efficace de l'enregistrement de bande passante pour des options d'arbres maximaux multiples dans un réseau informatique. Selon cette nouvelle technique, un pont d'entrée détermine des chemins d'arbres maximaux multiples vers d'autres ponts du réseau (à savoir, un ou plusieurs arbres maximaux disponibles enracinés au niveau d'un ou de plusieurs ponts du réseau) et détermine une bande passante (enregistrée) sur chacun de ces chemins. À la réception d'une demande de lancement d'enregistrement de bande passante pour un flux de données vers une extrémité de destination, p. ex. depuis une extrémité source d'application, le pont d'entrée sélectionne un des chemins d'arbres maximaux à utiliser pour le flux de données. La sélection d'un chemin d'arbres maximaux parmi les chemins multiples disponibles peut se faire d'après (i) la bande passante disponible des chemins, (ii) un des chemins les plus courts et (iii) une identification de pont le plus bas pour la racine de pont pour le chemin. Le pont d'entrée envoie un message d'enregistrement pour le flux de données vers l'extrémité de destination le long du chemin d'arbres maximaux sélectionné. En cas de réussite, le flux de données est transmis sur le chemin sélectionné. Dans le cas contraire, le pont d'entrée tente d'enregistrer le flux de données sur le deuxième meilleur arbre maximal, p. ex. jusqu'à la réussite de l'enregistrement ou jusqu'à ce qu'on détermine qu'aucun autre arbre maximal possible n'existe.
