Abstract:
A server system may include a plurality of internal hubs communicatively coupled to a plurality of server nodes. The plurality of internal hubs may communicate with an external hub to transmit broadcast traffic to reach a designated server node. A hub controller, a routing device coupled to the plurality of internal hubs, may select an internal hub from among a plurality of internal hubs based on a link status and a set of hub selection rules. Based on a status of active link and a relative priority of internal hubs, an internal hub is selected as a transmission channel to receive broadcast traffic from the external hub and direct the broadcast traffic to a corresponding server node.
