Abstract

A first network device may configure a high-availability cluster associated with a network that includes the first network device and a second network device. The first network device may identify a plurality of devices communicatively coupled to the network and determine a set of tasks for the plurality of devices. The first network device may queue the set of tasks in a task queue that is accessible to the second network device. The second network device may perform a first task and the first network device may perform a second task of the set of tasks. The first network device may receive first result information that is associated with a performance of the first task. The first network device may determine a result associated with performing the second task. The first network device may synchronize the first result information and the second result information with the second network device.
