Distributed load balancer health management using data center network manager

Abstract:

The disclosed technology relates to a load balancing system. A load balancing system is configured to receive health monitoring metrics, at a controller, from a plurality of leaf switches. The load balancing system is further configured to determine, based on the health monitoring metrics, that a server has failed and modify a load balancing configuration for the network fabric. The load balancing system is further configured to transmit the load balancing configuration to each leaf switch in the network fabric and update the tables in each leaf switch to reflect an available server.
