CONNECTION MESH IN MIRRORING ASYMMETRIC CLUSTERED MULTIPROCESSOR SYSTEMS

摘要

Embodiments are directed towards establishing a plurality of connections between each of a plurality of first computing devices in a primary chassis with each of a plurality of second computing devices in a failover chassis. A first computing device uses the plurality of connections as mesh connections to select a second computing device in which to route information about received packets. Routing of information about the packets to the selected second computing device includes modifying a source port number in the packets to include an identifier of the first computing device and an identifier of the second computing device. The information may indicate that the failover chassis is to perform specialized routing of the modified packets.
