Abstract
Systems, methods and computer readable media for network loop detection and prevention are described. Some implementations can include a computerized method comprising detecting, at a first switch, a loop condition in a network, and generating, at the first switch, a localize loop message having an instance count and a path list. The method can also include setting, at the first switch, the instance count of the localize loop message to a first value, and transmitting, from the first switch, the localize loop message to a second switch. The method can further include detecting, at the second switch, a loop in the network; and sending, from the second switch, a localize loop response message to the first switch.
