Characterization of Layer-2 Unique Topologies in Multisubnet Local Area Networks

Hassan Gobjuka, Yuri Breitbart

Open publisher page 5 citations

Abstract

Obtaining network connectivity information (or, alternatively, network topology) at layer-2 of the ISO hierarchy is critical to an effective management of large local area networks (LANs) that include hundreds of layer-2 network elements. Despite the importance of getting a layer-2 network topology, there are several major difficulties in tracking this information
