| Abstract | Satellite onboard switching capabilities, and their possibility to enable "over-the-air" networks, are a strongly innovative achievement of modern satellite communication. The exploitation of satellite networking is especially relevant in the case of low Earth orbit satellites (LEO), where the reduced latency makes a LEO mesh network highly appealing and competitive with terrestrial solutions also in terms of performance. However, while the idea of a LEO mesh network is well understood, we are far from an ultimate answer on which is the best and more appropriate networking solution for moving LEO satellite network nodes. This paper promotes the adoption of existing layer-2 networking solutions over LEO networks. We believe that LEO networking may leverage from already existing and well understood layer-2 switching mechanisms, thus allowing, on one side, onboard deployment of switching fabrics and solutions already developed for terrestrial networks, and, on the other side, seamless interoperation with terrestrial networks. Specifically, as technical contribution of this paper, we show how 802.1Q switching solutions (i.e. Ethernet virtual LAN switching) may be adapted, with limited modification effort, to operate in a LEO scenario. Moreover, we propose an innovative approach for frame routing over a mesh of multiple spanning trees (802.1s), especially devised to dramatically enhance the performance of legacy 802.1Q solutions in the presence of moving LEO nodes |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
