    Abstract: The present invention discloses a method and an apparatus for recovering unicast traffic during an Ethernet ring failover, relates to the field of communication technologies, and solves the problem of interruption of the unicast traffic caused by a link failure during the Ethernet ring failover and before completion of flushing of the MAC address table. In embodiments of the present invention, because a network switch sets the broadcast flags of the ports in the loop of the Ethernet ring to the set state before completion of flushing of the MAC address table, if the broadcast flag of the destination port corresponding to the destination address in a unicast packet received by the network switch is in the set state, the network switch broadcasts the unicast packet. Therefore, the network switch in the loop of the Ethernet ring can recover the interrupted unicast traffic without waiting for completion of flushing of the MAC address table, thereby implementing recovering the unicast traffic during an Ethernet ring failover.

    Abstract: A method for updating blocked port information is provided by the present invention. The method includes that: when the Ring Protection Link (RPL) owner node in the Ethernet ring is in a pending state and after a wait to restore (WTR) timer expires, the RPL owner node in the Ethernet ring updates the flushing record information of the adjacent port of the RPL to: the information identifying the blocked port of the RPL owner node in the Ethernet ring . A system for updating blocked port information is also provided by the present invention. In the system, an updating unit is used by the RPL owner node in the Ethernet ring to update the flushing record information of the adjacent port of the RPL to: the information identifying the blocked port of the RPL owner node in the Ethernet ring. The blocked port information of the RPL owner node in the Ethernet can be updated in time by application of the method and system of the present invention, and therefore the problem that the RPL owner node re-flushes when the Ethernet ring switches back can be solved.

    Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a fault tolerant network capable of supporting the existing applications serviced by MOST and CAN and the new applications of X-by-wire targeted by FlexRay.SOLUTION: A data communication system and an associated network node use single-channel bi-directional communication links between nodes to send frames of data. The network nodes can be connected together in a ring or daisy chain topology with data frames sent in alternating directions through the bi-directional links. Such networks initially configured in a physical ring topology can tolerate single point failures by automatically switching to a logical daisy chain topology.

    Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To reduce the problem of the disturbed sequence of a plurality of unicast packets successively transmitted in order, before the update of a MAC address table is completed in a ring failure avoidance system.SOLUTION: A network switch sets a broadcast flag of a port in the loop of an Ethernet ring to a set state before the completion of updating the MAC address table. When a broadcast flag of a destination port corresponding to the destination address of a unicast packet received by the network switch is in the set state, the network switch broadcasts the unicast packet. Accordingly, the network switch in the loop of the Ethernet ring can recover the interrupted unicast traffic without waiting for the completion of the MAC address table update. Thus, the unicast traffic can be recovered in the middle of the execution of the Ethernet ring failure avoidance system.

    Abstract: A ring network with plural network relay devices connected in a ring shape includes first and second control ports to be transitioned into either a forwarding state that permits relaying information, or a blocking state that prohibits relaying information; and a ring protocol control unit for transmitting connection confirmation information indicative of communications being possible between the first and the second control port, from the first to the second control port, and from the second to the first control port at a predetermined time interval, or for, in the event that the first or the second control port does not receive the connection confirmation information from the second or the first control port, transmitting failure information indicative of communications being not possible between the first and the second control port, from the first to the second control port, or from the second to the first control port. The ring protocol control unit transitions the first control port into the blocking state when the first control port receives the failure information, or into the forwarding state when the first control port transmits the failure information. The ring protocol control unit transitions the second control port into the blocking state when the second control port receives the failure information, or into the forwarding state when the second control port transmits the failure information.

    Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To enable continuous detection of failures in a ring network when exchanging a monitoring node.SOLUTION: In a ring network having an old monitoring node 100, the old monitoring node 100 is replaced with a new monitoring node 110. At this exchange, when it is detected that both ring ports become in a linkup state, the new monitoring node 110 instructs a relay node 200 to transfer a health check frame H102 transmitted from the ring port 102 of the old monitoring node 100 to the new monitoring node 110 side. As a result, the new monitoring node 110 monitors the ring network by receiving the health check frame H102.
