ABSTRACT:
A communications system in which a first node is connected to a plurality of second nodes for controlling the operation of the second nodes. The plurality of second nodes is arranged in one or more logical interconnects, the topology of the one or more logical interconnects being distinct from the topology of the physical interconnection of the nodes. Each second node sends status messages to its logical successor node and monitors the status messages received from its logical predecessor node for determining the status thereof.
