[0041] In order to avoid the generation of a unidirectional link, it is necessary to detect devices on both sides of the link, wherein the detection protocols include but not limited to: OAM, DLDP (Device Link Detection Protocol, Device Link Detection Protocol).
[0042] Specifically, DLDP can monitor the link status of optical fiber or copper twisted pair. If a unidirectional link is found, DLDP will automatically close or notify the user to manually close the relevant port according to user configuration to prevent network problems.
[0043] In addition, DLDP is a link layer protocol that can work with physical layer protocols to monitor the link status of devices. Among them, the auto-negotiation mechanism of the physical layer can detect physical signals and faults, and DLDP can identify peer devices, identify unidirectional links, and close unreachable ports. By working together, the two can detect and close physical and logical one-way connections. If both ends of the li...
