A method of identifying a point of failure in a first network via a second network, wherein the first network comprises first type devices (350-351), wherein the first type devices are communicatively connected to a first management system (310) via one of the first type devices, wherein the second network comprises second type devices (360-361) each communicatively connected to a second management system (311), and wherein a first device of the first type devices and a second device of the second type devices are located at a same location, the method comprising: the first device generating a neighbor list comprising an indication of active communicatively connected other first type devices; transmitting the neighbor list from the first device to the first management system via the second device and the second management system; and the first management system determining the point of failure based on the neighbor list.
A method of identifying a point of failure in a first network via a second network, wherein the first network comprises a plurality of first type device, wherein the plurality of first type devices are communicatively connected to a first management system, wherein the second network comprises a plurality of second type devices each communicatively connected to a second management system, and wherein a first device of the first type devices and a second device of the second type devices are located at a same location and communicatively connected via a communication link, and the first management system and the second management system are communicatively connected, the method comprising:
A device comprising a first device of a first type and a second device of a second type,
A system comprising a first network and a second network, wherein the first network comprises a plurality of first type devices, wherein the plurality of first type devices are communicatively connected to a first management system, wherein the second network comprises a plurality of second type devices each communicatively connected to a second management system, and wherein a first device of the first type devices and a second device of the second type devices are located at a same location and communicatively connected via a communication link, and the first management system and the second management system are communicatively connected.
