Abstract
A system comprising a plurality of nodes forming a network, the plurality of nodes comprising source nodes and destination nodes; wherein a propagation limit restricts the travel of link-state information transmitted by the sources nodes to a subset of destination nodes within the network. A network-layer protocol provided at a layer above that of the network facilitates communication between nodes within and outside of this subset of nodes.
