1. A method for detecting a looping network packet, comprising the steps of:

  • receiving a network packet;

    determining that an address related parameter, a sequence number related parameter, and a radius related parameter of a routing table have been replaced within a predetermined period of time;

    determining that the address related parameter of the routing table is the same as an address related parameter of the network packet;

    determining that the sequence number related parameter of the routing table is the same as a sequence number related parameter of the network packet; and

    determining that the radius related parameter of the routing table is different from a radius related parameter of the network packet, in order to identify the network packet as the looping network packet.
