Abstract

See full text

In a method (400) for routing packets between a plurality of top switches (110a-110n) and a plurality of leaf switches (120a-120n) using a balancing table (204, 208, 210) in a fat tree network (100), a failed link between at least one top switch (110n) and at least one leaf switch (120n) is detected (402). In addition, the balancing table (204, 208, 210) is modified (406) based on the detected failed link, and the packets are routed (408) between the plurality of top switches (110a-110n) and the plurality of leaf switches (120a-120n) in the fat tree network (100) based on the modified balancing table (204, 208, 210).
