Method and system for router misconfiguration autodetection

摘要

Reconfiguration operations in a networking environment are actively monitored to automatically detect faulty network traffic routing conditions, such as routing loop. The autodetection includes identifying a condition in which one of a number of routers is switched to a reconfiguration mode. In response, a network monitoring state is initiated in which operational parameters of each router are recurringly analyzed to detect an unexpected deviation that evidences the faulty network traffic condition.
