Sumario:Describes a method for a local high-speed packet switching network. The routing method used in Cernet, a packet switching network of the European Organization for Nuclear Research (Cern) site, is presented. The method is based on a decentralized procedure for updating routing tables. The tables adapt to changes in the network topology, but not to variations in the packet traffic load. The method is claimed to be simple and robust, permitting a fairly small and efficient implementation. (3 refs).
