  • This abstract for appeared for patent application number 18324350 Titled 'Route Advertisement Method, Apparatus, and System'

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes a network system consisting of three devices. The first device receives a message containing a route prefix, which is a specific network address. Based on this route prefix, the first device obtains a second route prefix, which corresponds to a specific section of the network called a network slice. The second route prefix is a subset of the first route prefix. The first device then sends a message to the second device, advertising the second route prefix.


Original Abstract Submitted

A network system includes a first network device, a second network device, and a third network device. The first network device is configured to: obtain a first route advertisement message, where the first route advertisement message includes a first route prefix; and obtain a second route prefix based on the first route prefix, where the second route prefix corresponds to a first network slice, and the second route prefix is a subnet prefix of the first route prefix. The first network device advertises a second route advertisement message to the second network device, where the second route advertisement message includes the second route prefix.
