Abstract:
System and method for supporting shared multicast local identifiers (MLIDs) a high performance computing environment. In accordance with an embodiment, a shared MLID range can be configured such that each subnet within a fabric can utilize an MLID within a shared MLID range without the need to utilize a TCAM, or other memory, lookup of a MGID to MLID mapping.
