摘要: Network devices, storage mediums and methods for updating a memory structure in data plane of the network device when route updates are received control device. The described herein can be used to perform one following algorithms: Basic Incremental Split-Merge (BISM) algorithm, Lazy (LISM) Down-support (DSM) algorithm. Each algorithms may incrementally update portions forwarding database stored within structure, where updated correspond only those affected by updates.
