An apparatus and method for enhancing data integrity during router recovery using dual-homed host configuration are disclosed. A process of routing resumption, in one embodiment, is able to recover or reset a network element (“NE”) such as a primary router from system failure. A first link configured to transmit data packets between the NE and a network device is reestablished. Upon reestablishing a second link configured to transmit data packets between the NE and other NEs, a network discovery process utilizing network reachability protocol is initiated to identify routing paths associated with the NE. A routing table in the NE is updated in accordance with the routing paths. A ready message is issued from the NE to the network device when the routing table is at least partially completed. |
