Overview:

Ethernet has been used for connecting hosts in the area of high-performance computing, besides its use in local area networks. This paper investigates the impact of topology and link aggregation on a large-scale PC cluster with Ethernet. Ethernet topology that allows loops and its routing can be implemented by the VLAN routing method without creating broadcast storms. To simplify the system configuration without modifying system software, the VLAN tag is added to a frame at switches in the implementation of topologies. Each host creates VLAN interfaces that have different local network addresses on a physical interface, so that a switch learns MAC addresses of hosts by a broadcast in a PC cluster.
