Abstract
The disclosed system may include (1) a cache module, stored in memory, that stores a neighbor cache entry that specifies whether a neighbor of a network node is reachable according to a detection mechanism, (2) a timeout module, stored in memory, that specifies a timing interval in which to select a reachable time threshold, (3) a reception module, stored in memory, that receives event information about whether the neighbor is active, (4) a biasing module, stored in memory, that biases, based on the received event information about whether the neighbor is active, a selection of the reachable time threshold within the timing interval, and (5) a determination module, stored in memory, that determines whether the neighbor is reachable based at least in part on a determination of whether the selected reachable time threshold has been satisfied. Various other systems and methods are also disclosed.
