PATH FAULT DETECTION METHOD AND APPARATUS, RELATED DEVICE, AND STORAGE MEDIUM - A simplified explanation of the abstract

  • This abstract for appeared for US patent application number 18337758 Titled 'PATH FAULT DETECTION METHOD AND APPARATUS, RELATED DEVICE, AND STORAGE MEDIUM'

Simplified Explanation

This application presents a method and apparatus for detecting faults in a communication path. The method involves determining a return path based on a forward path. During the fault detection process, a fault detection packet is sent from a tail node to a head node, and the return path for this packet includes the forward path. If the head node receives the fault detection packet, it indicates that the forward path is not faulty.


Original Abstract Submitted

Embodiments of this application disclose a path fault detection method and apparatus, a related device, and a storage medium, and belong to the field of communication technologies. In embodiments of this application, a return path is determined according to a forward path. In a path fault detection process, the return path through which a fault detection packet fed back by a tail node to a head node passes includes the forward path. In this way, if the head node receives the fault detection packet fed back by the tail node, it indicates that the forward path is not faulty.
