Abstract

A system, and method of operation, for propagating revisions through a communications network. The system includes: (1) status reporting circuitry, associated with a second node of the communications network, for collecting and transmitting a current status of second node information stored in a memory of the second node, (2) first information revising circuitry, associated with a first node of the communications network, for receiving the current status from the second node, determining as a function of the current status whether a revision of the second node information is required and, if the revision is required, transmitting the revision to the second node to revise the second node information and (3) second information revising circuitry, associated with the second node of the communications network, for receiving a current status from a third node of the communications network, determining as a function of the current status from the third node whether a revision of third node information stored in a memory of the third node is required and, if the revision is required, transmitting the revision received from the first node to the third node to revise the third node information, the revision thereby propagating through the communications network via the first, second and third nodes thereof.
