Abstract:
A method includes: a first network device generates a data link layer-based autonomic control plane (L2 ACP) packet, wherein the first network device is an autonomic device in the autonomic network; encapsulates, based on a frame at a data link layer, the L2 ACP packet, wherein the frame at the data link layer comprises a source data link layer address and a destination data link layer address, and the source data link layer address is a data link layer address of the first network device; and sends, according to the destination data link layer address, the L2 ACP packet encapsulated based on the frame at the data link layer to a second network device, wherein the second network device is also an autonomic device in the autonomic network, and the second network device is a neighboring device of the first network device.

Claim (Index 20):
The second network device according to  claim 17 , wherein the packet header of the L2 ACP packet further comprises timing information, and the timing information instructs a receiving device of the L2 ACP packet to clear the L2 ACP packet in response to a time for buffering the L2 ACP packet exceeding preset duration; and\n wherein the one or more hardware processors execute the instructions to clear the L2 ACP packet in response to determining that the time for buffering the L2 ACP packet exceeds the preset duration indicated by the timing information.
