About Cluster

A cluster consists of multiple GigaVUE-OS nodes operating as a unified fabric such that packets entering the cluster on one node can be sent to a destination port on any other node. You set up packet distribution using the standard box ID/slot ID/port ID format, allowing maps to distribute traffic to any port in the cluster.

Figure 391: Sample Cluster illustrates a sample cluster of GigaVUE-OS nodes.
