Abstract
A system and method can support partition-aware routing in a multi-tenant cluster environment. An exemplary method can support one or more tenants within the multi-tenant cluster environment. The method can associate each of the one or more tenants with a partition of a plurality of partitions. The method can then associate each of the plurality of partitions with one or more nodes of a plurality of nodes, each of the plurality of nodes being associated with a leaf switch of a plurality of switches, the plurality of switches comprising a plurality of leaf switches and a plurality of root switches. Finally, the method can generate one or more linear forwarding tables, the one or more linear forwarding tables providing isolation between the plurality of partitions, wherein each of the plurality of nodes is associated with a partitioning order.
