Abstract
A network device including an address move detection unit, a loop detection packet generation unit, a packet parser unit and a loop determination unit coupled to the packet parser unit is provided. The address move detection unit detects whether an address field of a first packet received by the network device is moved. The loop detection packet generation unit generates a loop detection packet if the address move detection unit detects that the address field is moved. The packet parser unit parses a second packet received by the network device to extract an information. Based on the information, the loop determination unit determines whether the second packet matches the loop detection packet so as to determine whether there is any loop existing in the network device.
