Abstract: Method and system for providing autonomous real time updates of a network topology. The method is based on a physical layer point-to-point protocol residing in each network element. Either responsive to a request from a network management system or responsive to network trigger event a network initiates a request to its neighboring network elements. The neighboring network elements respond to the request by identifying themselves via an electronic serial number and the port by which they are connected to the requesting network element. The requesting network element then forwards the response to the request to a network management system. The network management system then use the responses to construct a network topology.

Abstract: Method and system for providing autonomous real time updates of a network topology. The method is based on a physical layer point-to-point protocol residing in each network element (210, 220). Either responsive to a request from a network management system (230) or responsive to network trigger event a network initiates a request to its neighboring network elements. The neighboring network elements respond to the request by identifying themselves via an electronic serial number and the port by which they are connected to the requesting network element. The requesting network element then forwards the response to the request to a network management system (230). The network management system (230) then uses the responses to construct a network topology.

Abstract translation: 提供网络拓扑的自主实时更新的方法和系统。 该方法基于驻留在每个网络元件（210,220）中的物理层点对点协议。 响应于来自网络管理系统（230）的请求或响应于网络触发事件，网络向其相邻网络元件发起请求。 相邻的网络元件通过经由电子序列号和与它们连接到请求网络元件的端口识别自身来响应该请求。 然后，请求网元将响应转发给网络管理系统（230）。 然后，网络管理系统（230）使用响应来构建网络拓扑。
