Routing table creation method, electronic device, and network

A routing table creation method, an electronic device, and a network are provided. The method includes: generating a first probe packet, where the first probe packet has a source address and a destination address; sending, from a source node corresponding to the source address, the first probe packet on a network including at least two nodes, until the first probe packet reaches a destination node corresponding to the destination address, and recording addresses of nodes through which the first probe packet passes, to form a first path; generating a second path according to the first path, where the second path is a reverse path of the first path; generating a first response packet, sending the first response packet along a second path until the first response packet reaches the source node; and creating a routing table entry according to the second path.
