Loop prevention in networks

摘要

Logical connections between nodes in a network can be established by the following steps: generation of an identifier by each group of logically connected nodes in the network; exchange of identifiers between physically connected groups of logically connected nodes; and establishment of logical connections between physically connected groups of logically connected nodes for which the exchanged identifiers differ. Repeatedly carried out, these steps can allow a network without logical loops to be built up from individual nodes.
