摘要： Systems and methods for optimizing port usage in an optical circuit switch are disclosed herein. A plurality of optical circulators can be coupled to the plurality of input and output ports of an optical circuit switch. An optical circulator coupled to an input port and an optical circulator coupled to an output port can form a bidirectional pair capable of communicating with any other bidirectional pair of the optical circuit switch. In this regard, the number of bidirectional ports of an optical circuit switch can be increased allowing additional bandwidth to flow through the optical circuit switch. Increasing the efficiency and capabilities of optical circuit switches within a large scale communications network can offer increased functionality and performance with little trade off.

摘要： The present technology considers network devices that include forwarding tables having a number of next-hop entries (e.g., egress ports) where it is possible that the egress port utilization can be load balanced using WCMP groups. To implement a WCMP group, its members are assigned weights representing an amount of data flow to distribute over a plurality of links for a given destination. The members may be replicated in a forwarding table proportionally to their assigned weights. This disclosure provides systems and methods to reduce the number of forwarding table entries required when implementing a WCMP group.

摘要： A system and method provides for delivering substantially uniform performance to all hosts in a network while minimizing a total number of switches required to deliver that performance. In a multi-stage network having a plurality of switches in a first tier and a plurality of switches in a second tier, additional switches may be deployed in the second tier to alleviate problems occurring as a result of uneven striping. A minimum number of second tier switches to be deployed may be determined as a function of a target level of throughput, for example, when using WCMP flow distribution.
