does anyone use linux based routers to get from an ipoib network out onto a regular ethernet network? if so, do you have multiple routers or just one? in the case of multiple routers how to you handle the traffic coming back from the ethernet network? (ie how does the ethernet network know which router to send the data back through)
--- to expand further on what i'm trying to do (sanity/success is still to be determine)... imagine a big cluster of machines all connected via infiniband running ipoib there are 4 linux routers on the ipoib network that also have 10Gb connections to an ethernet network the ethernet network contains a router to other resources what i want to accomplish is to have the compute nodes spray their traffic across the 4 linux routers and end up on the ethernet network i'm sure someone's done something like this before, but my google foo is failing me _______________________________________________ Beowulf mailing list, Beowulf@beowulf.org sponsored by Penguin Computing To change your subscription (digest mode or unsubscribe) visit http://www.beowulf.org/mailman/listinfo/beowulf
