Abstract:
A method is disclosed. The method may comprise identifying a plurality of network devices in a cluster of network devices. In some examples, the method may comprise identifying any virtual local area networks (VLANs) that are enabled on each of the plurality of network devices in the cluster of network devices. In some examples, the method may comprise, for each identified VLAN, determine a set of network devices accessible on a respective VLAN. In some examples, the method may comprise probing the respective VLAN in response to the respective VLAN being accessible by each network device in the cluster of network devices. A network device and a machine-readable medium are also disclosed.

Claim (Index 11):
A machine-readable medium comprising instructions which, when executed by a processor, cause the processor to:\n determine that a plurality of network controllers form a cluster of network controllers: determine the identity of virtual local area networks (VLANs) that are enabled on each of the plurality of network controllers in the cluster of network controllers; for each identified VLAN, determine a set of network controllers accessible on a respective VLAN; and cause a first network controller in the cluster of network controllers to probe the respective VLAN in response to the respective VLAN being accessible by each network controller in the cluster of network controller.
