Non-exponential queueing networks with blocking are studied under two types of blocking protocols: the 'stop' and the 'repeat' protocol under which services are to be either stopped or repeated respectively upon blocking. The two protocols are shown to be stationary equivalent when the system satisfies a partial balance condition. This condition is related to product-form results. The results are illustrated by closed and open network applications with reversible and nonreversible routing.
