Abstract :
The loop prevention method, which avoids misconnection (loop connection) and realizes a reliable network is proposed. The port disable function of P1394a is applied to the IEEE 1394 network. The restoration time is experimentally obtained to be around 1.4 msec for a network including 3 loops.
