Abstract
Aspects of the disclosure relate to error prevention in a communication session traffic environment. One or more embodiments of the disclosure relate to mitigation of processing loops during establishment of a communication session in a network. A network node at the boundary of the network can mitigate processing loops by monitoring formation of such loops and proactively terminating communication processing in response to expiration of a timer. The timer can be initiated in response to formation of a loop.
