Abstract
A packet is received from a first link, and includes identification of a sender and a destination. An acknowledgement of receiving the packet is transmitted toward the sender, and the packet is forwarded, over a second link, toward the destination. A copy of the packet is stored in a queue. Upon detecting that the destination failed to receive the packet forwarded over the second link, the copy of the packet is retrieved from the queue and re-transmitted over the second link to the destination.
