Abstract: A method, a device, and a system for deferring a switchback. A first network device sends a query packet to a second network device, detects, according to the query packet, whether a route from the second network device to a destination device is available after receiving the query packet, and when it is available, the second network device sends a query response packet to the first network device in order to trigger the first network device to switch back from a secondary route to a primary route. The technical solution provided reduces a wait-to-restore time of the switchback, ensures that service data transmitted from the first network device to the second network device can be transmitted to the destination device, and facilitates smooth transmission of the service data.

Abstract: A method for preventing a network attack, including: receiving, by a first network node in a Ethernet virtual private network (EVPN), a first packet, where the first packet carries a first media access control (MAC) address, and the first MAC address is a source MAC address of the first packet; and determining first MAC entry information, where the first MAC entry information includes a correspondence between the first MAC address, an identifier of the first MAC address, and egress port information of the first MAC address, and the identifier of the first MAC address is used to indicate that an egress port corresponding to the first MAC address is a trusted port.

Abstract: This application provides a control plane device switching method. When a user plane device in the forwarding-control separation system detects that performance of communication between the user plane device and an active control plane device does not meet a normal communication condition, and performance of communication between the user plane device and a standby control plane device meets the normal communication condition, the user plane device may send a switching request to the standby control plane device. When detecting that a quantity of user plane devices that each send the switching request is greater than or equal to a first quantity threshold, the standby control plane device may indicate each user plane device in the forwarding-control separation system to switch to the standby control plane device, so that the standby control plane device can replace the active control plane device to work, thereby ensuring normal running of a user service.

The second PE device receives the two request packets separately using a primary pseudo wire (PW) and using a secondary PW, the third PE device, and a bypass PW, switches preferential forwarding statuses relative to the primary PW and the bypass PW to a balance state, and then, notifies the first PE device and the third PE device using a response packet. The first PE device switches preferential forwarding statuses relative to the primary PW and the secondary PW to the balance state based on the response packet. The third PE device switches a preferential forwarding status relative to the bypass PW to the balance state based on the response packet.

Abstract: The present application provides a sensor-based surgery set and a method for determining the position of a holding device for a surgical instrument. The surgery set includes at least one holding device, an initialization station, and a number of sensors. The initialization station has a number of sensor slots, wherein each sensor is assigned to one sensor slot and wherein the initialization station is coupled to a storage unit in which initialization information is assigned to each sensor slot. A number of sensor slots are arranged on the holding device, wherein each sensor slot is assigned to one sensor slot of the initialization station. In an initialization arrangement, a specific number of sensors is in engagement with the sensor slots of the initialization station and are coupled to the storage unit for initialization and data transmission. In use, however, the sensors are in engagement with the sensor slots.
