发明名称 Method and apparatus for link-state handshake for loop prevention
摘要 A network node of a telecommunications network controlled by a link-state protocol includes a network interface which receives a message that contains information on a change in topology of the network. The node includes a processing unit that blocks forwarding of traffic to at least one neighbor node of the network at the network interface, agrees on the change in topology with the neighbor node; and unblocks the forwarding of traffic when the neighbor node has information about the topology which is the same as the information about the topology in a memory. A transient loop prevention method of a network node of a network having a plurality of a network nodes controlled by a link-state protocol includes the steps of receiving a message at a network interface which contains information on a change in topology of the network. There is the step of blocking forwarding of traffic to each neighbor node of the network at the network interface by a processing unit. There is the step of agreeing by the processing unit on the change in topology with the neighbor node. There is the step of unblocking the forwarding of traffic when the neighbor node has information about the topology which is the same as the information about the topology stored in a memory.
