REDUNDANT NON-LOOPING PATHS

An example method includes creating a plurality of redundant, non-looping paths to a plurality of switches, and providing information to the plurality of switches about the plurality of redundant, non-looping paths. The method further comprises assigning each of a plurality of clients to one of the plurality of redundant, non-looping paths, and providing information to the plurality of switches about which of the plurality of redundant, non-looping paths each client of the plurality of clients is assigned to. Then, in response to receiving a packet from a client of the plurality of clients, the method comprises transmitting the packet on one of the plurality of redundant, non-looping paths to one of the plurality of switches based at least in part on which of the plurality of redundant, non-looping paths the client is assigned to.
