NODE CAPABILITIES DETECTION METHOD AND SYSTEM

摘要

A system and method for disseminating node related capability information in a communication network. The method includes receiving an activation trigger at a first node that is part of the communication network; determining at the first node, based on the received activation trigger, whether first node related capability information or second node related capability information is to be sent to neighboring nodes; processing the first node related capability information or the second node related capability information at the first node before sending it to the neighboring nodes such that the node related capability information is added as one or more entries to the pre-established message structure; and disseminating the first node related capability information or the second node related capability information from the first node to the neighboring nodes.
