Dear all, first of all thank you for your cooperation!
Presently I am working on multi-stage router management plane implemented in
Linux. To describe the architecture in simple words: Multi-stage router -
multiple Linux based PCs connected to a switch but act as single router. We are
using this architecture to enhance the capacity of a single PC based router
architecture.
One of those PCs act as a representative of the whole PCs in the architecture
to respond to SNMP request.
My question is:
- How can I make this PC to receive the request from the manager, analyze the
request, forward it to the other PCs in the Multi-stage router, collect
information from them, compute the information (may be averaging, .... ), and
then give back a single common data to the manager?
(Clarification: Why to send it as a single common information? -- well, the
multi-stage router, even though it has multiple PCs, it acts as a single router
for the external devices. For example, the manager want to know the Uptime of
this router. Which PC's Uptime the representative PC should send to the
manager? I want to take the average of the Uptime of each PCs in the multistage
router and send that back to the manager. That means, I have to delay the
response to the manager, collect Uptime information from all the PCs in the
multistage router, average it and then respond to the manager with the average
value). How can I do that?
Thank you,
Fikru
