Abstract:
A scheduler is configured to schedule packets in a plurality of flows to a corresponding one of a plurality of interfaces. Each of the packets includes a flow identifier for identifying a corresponding one of the plurality of flows. The scheduler include memory having instructions for execution by the processor to implement a scheduling algorithm. The scheduling algorithm person as follows. Sections within a predefined range are assigned to corresponding ones of the plurality of interfaces. For each packet, a hash function is applied to the flow identifier to obtain a hash value that is evenly distributed within the predefined range. Additionally, for each packet, it is determined in which of the sections the hash value falls and the corresponding one of the plurality of interfaces is identified accordingly.
