  • Patent number: 10476945
    Abstract: A device may receive first information identifying multiple server devices and second information identifying multiple flows. The device may assign the multiple flows to the multiple server devices in a first order. The device may store the second information in multiple data structures to record the assignment of the multiple flows to the multiple server devices. A data structure, of the multiple data structures, may correspond to a respective server device of the multiple server devices. The device may receive an indication that a server device has been added to, or removed from, the multiple server devices after storing the second information. The device may reassign a subset of the multiple flows in a second order using third information identifying an order in which the multiple flows were assigned to the multiple server devices. The second order may be different from the first order.

  • Patent number: 10218629
    Abstract: In one example, a network device is configured as a leaf node of an interconnected topology that defines a plurality of network paths from the network device to each of a plurality of other leaf nodes of the interconnected topology. The network device includes one or more processing units configured to forward a first packet of a packet flow along a first network path of the plurality of network paths, after receiving a second packet of the packet flow, determine an inactivity interval for the packet flow that represents an amount of time between receipt of the first packet and receipt of the second packet, compare the inactivity interval to a threshold, and when the inactivity interval is greater than the threshold, forward the second packet along a second network path of the plurality of network paths, wherein the second network path is different than the first network path.

  • Patent number: 10164795
    Abstract: In some embodiments, a method includes defining, by a processor included in a first node, a virtual-extensible-local-area-network (VXLAN) tunnel between the first node included in a first layer-two network, and a second node included in a second layer-two network, the VXLAN tunnel traversing at least one node of a layer-three network. The method includes receiving, at the first node, a layer-two data unit that is sent from a third node included in the first layer-two network, to a fourth node included in the second layer-two network. The method includes encapsulating, at the first node, the layer-two data unit to define an encapsulated data unit that includes a VXLAN header. The method includes sending the encapsulated packet from the first node towards the fourth node via the VXLAN tunnel.
