摘要: A method and system of failure detection in a computer network, including pre-programming a number of processors of a multi-processor networked system coupled with remote systems via a network, each of the processors configured to run a BFD module. One processor may be assigned to be an active BFD server to establish sessions between the multi-processor networked system and the remote systems to detect link faults between the multi-processor networked system and the remote systems. Other processors may be assigned as dormant BFD clients. If a link or a processor running the active BFD server fails, one of the dormant BFD clients is selected to become an active BFD server. The BFD server may be dynamically replaced with a dormant client based on predetermined criteria without failure of the BFD server.
