Abstract:
A hierarchical domain includes egress routers, an ingress router, set gateway routers, and subdomain gateway routers. The ingress router receives a multicast packet in a flow associated with the egress routers. The ingress router is in a first set of egress routers in a first subdomain of the hierarchical domain. The set gateway routers provide gateways to second sets of the plurality of egress routers in the first subdomain. The subdomain gateway routers provide gateways to second subdomains that includes sets of the plurality of egress routers. The ingress router generates a first copy of the multicast packet for transmission to the first set of egress routers based on a first bitstring, a second copy of the multicast packet for transmission to the set gateway routers based on a second bitstring, and a third copy of the multicast packet to the subdomain gateway routers based on a third bitstring.

Claim (Index 23):
A control plane entity for a first router in a hierarchical domain comprising:\n a memory configured to store:\n a subdomain routing table that includes entries for subdomain gateway routers to the subdomains in the hierarchical domain that do not include the first router, \n a set routing table that includes entries for set gateway routers to sets that are in the subdomain that includes the first router but are not in a set that includes the first router, \n a local routing table that includes entries for local routers in the set that includes the first router, \n a transmitter to transmit programming information from the control plane entity to a data plane entity, wherein the programming information is used to program the data plane entity to forward the copies of the multicast packets to the routers in the different levels of the hierarchy.
