Abstract
The present disclosure relates to apparatus and methods for route invalidation. In one example method, a common ancestor node of a network determines switching of a parent node of a node based on an update message received from the node using a new routing path established based on the switching of the parent node. The common ancestor node generates a No-Path message based on the update message. The No-Path message is for invalidating a previous routing path associated with the node on the switching of the parent node. The update message comprises at least one bit authorizing generation of the No-Path message by the common ancestor node. The at least one bit is placed in a transit information option in the update message.
