One embodiment of the present invention provides a computing system. The computing system includes a discovery module, a high-availability management module, and a controlling module. The discovery module determines local switch-specific information associated with a switch based on a discovery response packet. The high-availability management module determines remote switch-specific information about the same switch with respect to a remote computing system. The controlling module determines whether the computing system is to manage the switch based on a metric derived from the local and remote switch-specific information.
