Abstract
The server may be configured with two or more than two network cards. The server may advertise a route, which may comprise a network segment address of each local network card and an IP address of the server, to a route neighbor of the server via the each local network card. The server may receive route information, which may comprise an address of a device, from the route neighbor of the server via the each network card. The server may determine a route from the server to the device. An outgoing port of the route may be the each network card. When a packet destined for the address of the device is received, the server may forward the packet via the route. When a link connecting to a network card fails, the server may disable all the routes, outgoing interfaces of which may be the network card.
