Publication number: 20220116307Abstract: A wireless network device may receive a broadcasted hello message. The wireless network device may determine, based on the broadcasted hello message, interfaces to communicate with neighbor devices. The wireless network device may determine costs for links of the interfaces. A highest cost link of the interfaces may be blocked and a lowest cost link of the interfaces may be unblocked. The wireless network device may transmit, in the network, an announce message that indicates the highest cost link as blocked and the lowest cost link as unblocked.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 21, 2021Publication date: April 14, 2022Applicant: AIRTIES KABLOSUZ ILETISIM SANAYI VE DIS TICARET A.S.Inventors: Alper Akcan, Irfan Acar, Bilal Hatipoglu, Mustafa Karaca, Mujdat Pakkan, Devin Mungan

Patent number: 10560368Abstract: A wireless network device may receive, over an interface, a broadcasted hello message that indicates network topology and interface information of neighbor nodes in a network. The wireless network device may transmit an announce message to unblocked hello peers of the wireless network device. The wireless network device may receive, on a wired interface from another node, a hello message. The wireless network device and the another node may each be identified as island heads based on the received hello message. The wired interface may be utilized for connecting the island heads.Type: GrantFiled: January 24, 2018Date of Patent: February 11, 2020Assignee: Airties Kablosuz Iletisim Sanayi Ve Dis Ticaret A.S.Inventors: Alper Akcan, Irfan Acar, Bilal Hatipoglu, Mustafa Karaca, Mujdat Pakkan, Devin Mungan
