ABSTRACT:
Methods and systems are disclosed for scalable advertising of an abstracted form of an arbitrary network of nodes and links to external nodes or networks. One or more phantom hub nodes can be used that are connected to at least one node, forming one or more virtual network topology representing the internal connectivity of the network.
