NETWORK FAULT CORRELATION IN MULTI-ROUTE CONFIGURATION SCENARIOS

摘要

A method and network device are shown that include identifying at least one fault identifier to be a member of a first fault set, and identifying at least one fault identifier to be a member of a second fault set, the first fault set associated with a first path from a source node to a destination node, and the second fault set associated with a second path from the source node to the destination node. Further, the method and network device include identifying a reduced fault set by eliminating the second fault set, when the first fault set is a subset of the second fault set.
