Systems and methods that ensure formation of a single ring from a seed node at any given time. A “bootstrap” phase is included in a node's life cycle, to mitigate adverse affects of split-brain conditions in a network. During such bootstrap phase, if an existing ring is found, the seed node can join the existing ring in a same manner as a non-seed node does. If no ring is detected, the bootstrap phase attempts to elect a seed node to be the “super-seed node”, wherein a new ring can then be formed with such new super-seed node as the first node.
