Embodiments of the present invention provide a method, node, and system for determining a fault indication state, and relate to the field of communications. The method includes: receiving results of detecting whether each service node in a service node pool is faulty transmitted by service request nodes; and determining fault indication states of a service node itself and other service nodes according to the results of detecting; or expanding an echo request message which carries a result of detecting, by a service request node itself, whether each service node in a service node pool is faulty during a previous period of a current period; and transmitting the echo request message to each service node at the beginning of the current period to enable each service node to determine fault indication states of a service node itself and other service nodes according to the result of detecting. The embodiments of the present invention further include a service request node and a service node, and a system formed of the two. According to the foregoing solutions of the present invention, reliability of service node fault detection is improved. |
