SCALING IPV4 AT LARGE DATACENTERS WITH DEVICE LEVEL AGGREGATION

摘要

Systems and methods are provided to support a large number of hosts while keeping the size of the FIB CAM low. Higher scalability may be achieved by consuming less FIB CAM space as hosts are added to a network. An L3 switching module may be provided capable of supporting a large number of virtual machines and/or hosts while maintaining a small FIB CAM size on a multiple device virtual switching system with device level aggregation.
