INTER-PLATE INTERCONNECTION DEVICE AND METHOD IN ROUTER CLUSTER
摘要
<p>The present invention discloses an inter-plate interconnection device in a router cluster, wherein the device includes: at least two central switching frames and a line card frame, wherein the central Ethernet switching plates of the at least two central switching frames are connected with each other and the Ethernet switching plates of the line card frame are connected with the central Ethernet switching plates of the at least two central switching frames respectively. The present invention also discloses an inter-plate interconnection method in a router cluster, wherein the method includes: connecting the central Ethernet switching plates of the at least two central switching frames with each other; connecting the Ethernet switching plates of the line card frame with the central Ethernet switching plates of the at least two central switching frames respectively. With the device and method of the present invention, the reliability is increased and the problem of the communication link interrupt between the line card frame and the central switching frames is solved.</p>
