1. A method comprising:
- identifying at least one fault identifier to be a member of a first fault set, and identifying at least one fault identifier to be a member of a second fault set, the first fault set associated with a first path from a source node to a destination node, and the second fault set associated with a second path from the source node to the destination node; and
identifying a reduced fault set by eliminating the second fault set, when the first fault set is a subset of the second fault set.

Abstract
A method and network device are shown that include identifying at least one fault identifier to be a member of a first fault set, and identifying at least one fault identifier to be a member of a second fault set, the first fault set associated with a first path from a source node to a destination node, and the second fault set associated with a second path from the source node to the destination node. Further, the method and network device include identifying a reduced fault set by eliminating the second fault set, when the first fault set is a subset of the second fault set.

10. A network device comprising:
-
an identifier engine to identify at least one fault identifier to be a member of a first fault set, and to identify at least one fault identifier to be a member of a second fault set, the first fault set associated with a first path from a source node to a destination node, and the second fault set associated with a second path from the source node to the destination node; and a reduced set generator to identify a reduced fault set through the elimination of the second fault set, when the first fault set is a subset of the second fault set. - View Dependent Claims (11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18)

19. A network device comprising:
-
at least one processor; and a memory in communication with the at least one processor, the memory including logic encoded in one or more tangible media for execution and when executed operable to; identify at least one fault identifier to be a member of a first fault set, and identifying at least one fault identifier to be a member of a second fault set, the first fault set associated with a first path from a source node to a destination node, and the second fault set associated with a second path from the source node to the destination node; and identify a reduced fault set by eliminating the second fault set, when the first fault set is a subset of the second fault set.

20. An apparatus comprising:
-
means for identifying at least one fault identifier to be a member of a first fault set, and identifying at least one fault identifier to be a member of a second fault set, the first fault set associated with a first path from a source node to a destination node, and the second fault set associated with a second path from the source node to the destination node; and means for identifying a reduced fault set by eliminating the second fault set, when the first fault set is a subset of the second fault set.
