摘要: Methods and systems for supporting efficient load balancing among a plurality of switches end nodes arranged in tree topology network environment. The methods can sort the nodes, wherein are sorted decreasing order receive weight. method system may further route, weights, routing comprises selecting at least one down-going port up-going port. Further, increase an accumulated downward weight on each selected by routed node, upward node.
