METHODS AND APPARATUS FOR STANDARD PROTOCOL VALIDATION MECHANISMS DEPLOYED OVER A SWITCH FABRIC SYSTEM |
摘要 |
An apparatus includes a destination edge device configured to receive a first validation packet according to a switch fabric validation protocol. The destination edge device is configured to validate multiple data paths through a distributed switch fabric from a source edge device to the destination edge device based on the first validation packet. The destination edge device is configured to send, in response to receiving the first validation packet, a second validation packet to a peripheral processing device. The destination edge device is also configured to send the second validation packet according to a validation protocol different from the first validation protocol. |

1. An apparatus, comprising:
a destination edge device configured to receive a first validation packet according to a switch fabric validation protocol, the destination edge device configured to validate a plurality of data paths through a distributed switch fabric from a source edge device to the destination edge device based on the first validation packet, the destination edge device configured to send, in response to receiving the first validation packet, a second validation packet to a peripheral processing device, the destination edge device configured to send the second validation packet according to a validation protocol different from the switch fabric validation protocol. |
