Abstract
Techniques for routing data packets in a networked system. Specifically, a network system and methods of arbitrating data packets in a network system are provided. Switching devices are configured to receive one or more data packets, wherein each of the one or more data packets includes a respective source identification. The source identifications are compared to a source identification history mechanism, and the routing order of the data packets is determined based on the comparison.
