ABSTRACT:
A method includes receiving a request to identify any communication paths visible to a first router in a mesh network and broadcasting the request. The method also includes identifying one or more second routers that broadcast information received by the first router, where the one or more identified second routers are associated with the communication paths visible to the first router. The method further includes receiving at least one first response from at least one of the second routers, where the at least one first response identifies the communication paths visible to at least one of the second routers. In addition, the method includes broadcasting a second response at the first router, where the second response identifies the communication paths visible to at least one of the second routers and to the first router.
