Abstract

See full text

The subject matter described herein includes methods, systems, and computer program products for selective network management in a network having multiple active routes to a common destination that are keyed by different combinations of parameters. According to one aspect, the subject matter described herein includes a method for controlling distribution of network management messages concerning the status of a signaling link by provisioning a routing node with a primary route to a destination and at least one exception route to the destination wherein the primary route and the exception route are keyed by different combinations of signaling message parameters. The method includes receiving network management messages concerning the status of the destination on a linkset corresponding to the exception route, updating the status of the exception route in a route table maintained by the routing node, and suppressing the broadcasting of network management messages concerning the status of the destination to nodes adjacent to the routing node.
