Abstract
A system and method for communicating between applications using a routing process. A set of one or more signal-routes are defined on a network device, including a first signal-route. Each signal-route is associated with a state of an application to be executed on the network device, wherein the first signal-route is associated with a first application state of the application. The network device detects, within the application executing within an application layer of the network device, a change in the first application state and notifies other applications of the change in the first application state. Notifying includes modifying the first signal-route, wherein modifying includes adding the first signal-route to or removing the first signal-route from a Routing Information Base (RIB) and advertising the change in the RIB.
