NETWORK TOPOLOGY DISCOVERY

摘要

Topology discovery includes determining connection data identifying connections between network devices. The connection data includes the network devices and network interfaces for the devices, iterations are performed to determine links in the topology based on the connection data. An iteration may include adding a link in the topology (306), adding an unknown domain to the topology (501), or removing an interface associated with the added link from the connection data if the link is added to the topology (403).
