Utilizes the new "node signature" field in neighbor discovery messages to ensure that all links TIPC associates with a given <Z.C.N> network address belong to the same neighboring node. (Previously, TIPC could not tell if link setup requests arriving on different interfaces were from the same node or from two different nodes that has mistakenly been assigned the same network address.) The revised algorithm for detecting a duplicate node considers both the node signature and the network interface adddress specified in a request message when deciding how to respond to a link setup request. This prevents false alarms that might otherwise arise during normal network operation under the following scenarios: a) A neighboring node reboots. (The node's signature changes, but the network interface address remains unchanged.) b) A neighboring node's network interface is replaced. (The node's signature remains unchanged, but the network interface address changes.) c) A neighboring node is completely replaced. (The node's signature and network interface address both change.) The algorithm also handles cases in which a node reboots and re-establishes its links to TIPC (or begins re-establishing those links) before TIPC detects that it is using a new node signature. In such cases of "delayed rediscovery" TIPC simply accepts the new signature without disrupting communication that is already underway over the links.
