Route Detection Method and Apparatus - A simplified explanation of the abstract
- This abstract for appeared for US patent application number 18298635 Titled 'Route Detection Method and Apparatus'
Simplified Explanation
The abstract describes a scenario where a network device receives a packet containing the address of another network device. The first network device then sends a detection packet to the second network device in order to check if a route to it is reachable. If the first network device does not receive a response packet from the second network device, it concludes that the route to the second network device is not accessible.
Original Abstract Submitted
A first network device receives a first packet that includes an address of the second network device. The first network device sends, to the second network device, a first detection packet used to determine that a route is reachable. The first network device determines, when a response packet of the first detection packet is not received, that the route to the second network device is unreachable.
