Abstract:
A method, apparatus and computer program product for providing Split Multi Link Trunk (SMLT) for Advanced Technology Attachment (ATA) Over Ethernet is presented. All ports on an ATA server are assigned a same Media Access Control (MAC) address. When the first switch receives a packet destined to the second switch the first switch performs a route lookup on a destination address of the packet and forwards the packet to the target over one of the second plurality of links, and when the second switch receives a packet destined to the first switch the second switch performs a route lookup on a destination address of the packet and forwards the packet to the target over one of the second plurality of links.
