Abstract
Method of routing data in a network, this data originating from a first node and being destined for a second node, this method comprising the following steps: —pre-recording in each of the switches of a list of switches directly interfaced with one or more nodes; —reception of the data by a first switch and determination of its destination; when the first switch is directly interfaced with the second node via an output port-selection then in routing of the data by said output port; otherwise —identification of the switch to which the second node is directly interfaced; —routing of the data to the identified switch via an output port of the first switch, so that the data can be forwarded to said identified switch.
