Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
A system and method can support routing packets between a plurality of switches in a middleware machine environment, thereby supporting Internet Protocol (IP) based management traffic via enabling IP over Infiniband (IPoIB) communication in the middleware machine environment. The plurality of switches can perform routing for inter-switch traffic in the middleware machine environment using a first routing algorithm. Then, a switch in the middleware machine environment can be selected as a hub switch for inter-switch traffic that can not reach destination using the first routing algorithm. Furthermore, a routing table associated with the hub switch can be updated when a path exists between a source switch and a destination switch via the hub switch.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1. A method for supporting traffic routing in a middleware machine environment operating on one or more microprocessors, comprising: using a routing algorithm that includes an up/down turn model to route inter-switch traffic from a source switch to a destination switch in a fat-tree network in the middleware machine environment, wherein the fat-tree network includes a plurality of upper-level switches and a plurality of leaf switches, each leaf switch connected…
