Abstract

The traditional ECMP algorithm cannot effectively schedule elephant flows that may cause load unbalancing and network congestion in data center networks. For this problem, this paper proposed an ADMLB algorithm. Firstly, the controller obtained the load information of each switches and links, detected and marked the elephant flows in the end host. Then, it called the improved ant colony algorithm to solve the multipath problems according to the bandwidth requirements of the elephant flows. Finally, it scheduled the elephant flow. The experimental results show that the ADMLB algorithm reduces the link delay and effectively improves the link bandwidth utilization compared with the traditional ECMP and other existing algorithms.
