NON-DISRUPTIVE CONVERSION OF A CLUSTERED SERVICE FROM SINGLE-CHASSIS TO MULTI-CHASSIS

Abstract:

The embodiments provide for a method of expanding a clustered service. The method includes inserting a network layer, comprising multiple switch devices, between switch devices of a network and switch devices of a clustered service, rearranging connections of the switch devices of the network and the switch devices of the clustered service to form a multi-chassis link aggregation group (MC-LAG), and maintaining data traffic during the rearranging the connections.
