SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR PROPAGATING HEALTH OF A CLUSTER NODE

摘要

The present disclosure describes systems and methods for propagating port state to intermediary devices of a cluster in a static link aggregation environment. The methods and systems include a cluster comprising a plurality of intermediary devices in communication with a network device via a static link aggregation comprising aggregated ports from different intermediary devices of the cluster. A first device of the static link aggregation is configured to detect that a health of the first device is below a predetermined threshold and, responsive to the detection, identify one or more ports in the aggregated ports as down. A second device of the link aggregation is configured to, responsive to the identification, remove the ports from a distribution list for the static link aggregation. Upon detection that a health of a device is above a predetermined threshold, the first device may identify the ports as up.

1. A method comprising:
(a) establishing, via two or more devices of a plurality of devices in a cluster, a static link aggregation of ports from different devices of the plurality of devices; (b) detecting that a health of a device of the plurality of devices that was below a predetermined threshold is above the predetermined threshold; and (c) adding one or more ports of the device to the static link aggregation responsive to the detection.
