Abstract
A method of operating a distributed processing system including a name node and a plurality of data nodes includes transmitting an address request packet from the name node to each of the plurality of data nodes, transmitting an address packet from each of the plurality of data nodes to the name node upon receiving the address request packet at each of the plurality of data nodes and upon each of the plurality of data nodes storing its own media access control (MAC) address in a payload of the address packet as a data node MAC address, determining, by the name node, a node configuration of the distributed processing system based on the address packet received from each of the plurality of data nodes, and processing data using a selected data node from among the plurality of data nodes based on the node configuration.
