  • Identification and remediation of mesh instability source in a mesh network
    Patent number: 10979918
    Abstract: In one embodiment, a method comprises identifying, by an apparatus, a mesh instability source device that adds a substantial instability influence that substantially degrades network communications in a mesh network, including: determining, for each mesh network device in the mesh network, a corresponding node stability contribution that identifies a long-term capability of the corresponding mesh network device to provide reliable communications for other mesh network devices in the mesh network, and determining a corresponding influence of the node stability contribution on child mesh network devices relying on the corresponding mesh network device for connectivity in the mesh network, and identifying the mesh instability source device as having a corresponding worst influence of the node stability contribution in the mesh network; and eliminating the substantial instability influence based on determining a remediation solution, and causing the remediation solution to be implemented for the mesh instability
    Type: Grant
    Filed: November 20, 2018
    Date of Patent: April 13, 2021
    Assignee: CISCO TECHNOLOGY, INC.
    Inventors: Robert Edgar Barton, Jerome Henry, Xiaoguang Jason Chen, Rupak Chandra, Ibrahim Mortada
