METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR DETECTING STATE OF BGP SESSION, AND NETWORK DEVICE - A simplified explanation of the abstract
- This abstract for appeared for US patent application number 18344446 Titled 'METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR DETECTING STATE OF BGP SESSION, AND NETWORK DEVICE'
Simplified Explanation
The abstract describes a method used by a network device to establish a BGP session with another network device. The first network device creates a session called SBFD, which corresponds to the BGP session between the two devices. The first device acts as the initiator of the SBFD session, while the second device acts as the reflector. The first device sends SBFD packets to the second device based on the SBFD session. The first device then determines the state of the BGP session by analyzing the feedback received from the second device for the SBFD packets.
Original Abstract Submitted
A method is applied to a first network device, the first network device and a second network device have a BGP neighbor relationship, and the method includes: The first network device creates an SBFD session, where the SBFD session is an SBFD session corresponding to a BGP session between the first network device and the second network device, the first network device is an initiator of the SBFD session, the second network device is a reflector of the SBFD session, and the BGP session is a session created based on the BGP neighbor relationship. The first network device sends an SBFD packet to the second network device based on the SBFD session. The first network device determines a state of the BGP session based on a state of feedback by the second network device for the SBFD packet.
