Abstract:
Exemplified systems and methods facilitate multicasting latency optimization operations for router, switches, and other network devices, for routed Layer-3 multicast packets to provide even distribution latency and/or selective prioritized distribution of latency among multicast destinations. A list of network destinations for serially-replicated packets is traversed in different sequences from one packet to the next, to provide delay fairness among the listed destinations. The list of network destinations are mapped to physical network ports, virtual ports, or logical ports of the router, switches, or other network devices and, thus, the different sequences are also traversed from these physical network ports, virtual ports, or logical ports. The exemplified systems and methods facilitates the management of traffic that is particularly beneficial in a data center.

Claim (Index 3):
The apparatus of  claim 1 , wherein each entry of the plurality of entries of the Multicast Expansion Table comprises one or more pointers, each pointer addressing a next entry in the plurality of entries to form a traversable sequence for the first multicast traffic and the second multicast traffic.
