Abstract:
High availability is a key requirement for today and future networks. In despite of large investments to achieve high availability, network providers cannot guarantee 100% of availability. The existing protocols have two harmful situations named ‘No Brain’ and ‘Split Brain’ conditions, which are algorithmic problems that attack the network availability. This paper aims to show the developing and implementation of a new high availability protocol and how it fixes its predecessors, regarding these conditions.
