ABSTRACT:
In a spanning tree-based computer network having a plurality of switches, a spanning tree can be generated and/or recovered by identifying a network core, determining a distance to the network core for each switch in the network, and generating and/or recovering a spanning tree for the network based on the switches' relative distances to the network core.
