Claim 18:
19. A network node comprising a network interface and a processor, the network node belonging to a communication network with dynamically changing topology and configured to:
receive, via the network interface, an indication of a network event, or generate the indication of the network event, the network event pertaining to status of a node or link of the network;
transmit, using the network interface, the indication of the network event toward a first one or more other network nodes to notify the first one or more other network nodes of a change in network status with a first level of precision; and
actively inhibit transmission of the indication of the network event toward a second one or more other network nodes to notify the second one or more other network nodes of the change in network status with a second level of precision lower than the first level of precision, such that transmission of the indication of the network event toward the second one or more network nodes is delayed compared to transmission of the indication of the network event toward the first one or more network nodes.
