An algorithm that runs in network bridges and switches to prevent loops, in which packets keep going around in circles. In a small network with one or two switches, the spanning tree protocol (STP) ...

This project implements a software-defined switch with Spanning Tree Protocol (STP) support. The switch processes Ethernet frames, manages VLANs, and prevents network loops by exchanging BPDU (Bridge ...

Abstract: We propose a method to make a population of autonomous agents build and maintain a directed spanning tree architecture on a changing communication topology. Currently known algorithms can ...
