Abstract
A tool for supporting load distribution across one or more logical switch routers in a distributed system. The tool includes a first software module configurable to launch and monitor one or more application processes within the one or more logical switch routers in the distributed system. The tool includes a second software module configurable to manage a plurality of system information for the one or more logical switch routers in the distributed system. The tool includes a third software module configurable to control and manage a plurality of system resources in the distributed system. The tool includes a fourth software module configurable to control and manage a plurality of physical ports and a plurality of virtual ports in the distributed system. The tool includes a fifth software module configurable to manage a plurality of load distribution policies for the one or more logical switch routers in the distributed system.
