Abstract: A network monitoring system includes devices receiving network traffic information, and generating at least partial results relating to network symptoms. Those partial results are forwarded to devices processing those partial results and generating information relating to problems in response to those symptoms. Problems are reported to users or sent as notifications. In one embodiment, information relating to network traffic is monitored both by a first set of devices associated with source addresses for that network traffic and a second set of devices associated with destination addresses for that network traffic. Information received by that first set of devices includes information relating to both the source address and destination address of network traffic. That first set of devices processes information relating to the source address of network traffic and forwards information relating to the destination address of network traffic to that second set of devices.

Abstract: A virtual router spans a number of physical routing devices. One of the physical routing devices is designated as master, and the other physical routing devices are designated as backups to the master. The virtual router may be situated between a first local area network and a second local area network. A virtual router identifier can be associated with multiple interfaces on each of the physical routing devices.

Abstract: A virtual router spans a number of physical routing devices. A set of physical ports on one of the physical routing devices is logically represented as a trunk. A respective port priority value is associated with each of those ports, and a device priority value is associated with the physical routing device. If a port in the trunk is out-of-service, then the device priority value can be adjusted by the port priority value associated with the out-of-service port. A corrective action can be implemented if the device priority value fails to satisfy a condition. For example, the physical routing device may failover to another one of the physical routing devices spanned by the virtual router.

Abstract: A virtual router spans a number of physical routing devices. One of the physical routing devices is designated as master, and the other physical routing devices are designated as backups to the master. A failover protocol that includes both a non-dampened state and a dampened state can be implemented. According to the failover protocol, an attempt to designate one of the backups as master in place of the current master is permitted while the virtual router is in the non-dampened state, while such an attempt is suppressed while the virtual router is in the dampened state.
