SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR LAYER-2 TRAFFIC POLARIZATION DURING FAILURES IN A VIRTUAL LINK TRUNKING DOMAIN |
摘要 |
An information handling system is provided. The information handling system includes a first network switch configurable, the first network switch having a computer processor in communication with a plurality of ports for receiving and sending frames and a memory coupled to the computer processor and including a media access control (MAC) address table. The computer processor is configured to read frames, each frame having a header, and is also configured to associate a MAC address with a parent link aggregation group (LAG) except while a downstream link failure is detected. The computer processor is configured to associate the MAC address with a sub-LAG while a downstream link failure is detected. Methods for directing traffic through a virtual link trunking (VLT) domain during failure of a downstream link are also provided. |
