L2 unknown packet in Virtual chassis

1. Packet enters port and the PFE on the linecard

2. PFE performs source MAC lookup and the source MAC is unknown

3. A notification is sent to the local CPU

4. LC CPU encapsulates the packet header info (mac, vlan, port#) in an IPC msg to send to the Master’s CPU for learning

5. The IPC msg is routed to the Master’s CPU via the shortest path, first via the PCI-e to the 1st PFE en-route, then via the VC backplane arriving at the Master’s CPU through its PCI-e connection

L2 unknown packet in Virtual chassis

6. Master’s CPU decides whether to learn the MAC address or discard it based on configuration (e.g. mac-limiting)

7. If Master’s CPU learns the MAC address, It will send IPC msgs to all other CPUs instructing them to program the new MAC address in each PFE’s TCAM. Similar to step 5, these IPC messages will traverse both the PCI-e connections and the VC backplane to reach CPUs on each of the switches in the VC

1. Packets enters a port on the “LC” switch and its attached ingress EXPFE 2. Ingress PFE performs MAC address lookup, finds source MAC known, thus subsequently performs lookup on the destination MAC address 3. Destination MAC address matches that of the switch itself which triggers L3 lookup 4. Ingress PFE forwards packet based on L3 lookup result – if no entry found in L3 TCAM or if next-hop missing then packet is dropped in hardware 5. The egress PFE forwards the packet to the egress port based on the same L3 lookup result, no additional lookup needed
