Multi NIC/IP support -------------------- Key: CASSANDRA-1975 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-1975 Project: Cassandra Issue Type: Improvement Reporter: Christian Hofmann
Every node should listen on more than one IP. When a node is contacted a random IP for that node is chosen. If the node can not be reached by this IP an other IP is used. This way you don't need multipathing switches or Distributed Split Multi-Link Trunking hardware that is very expensive. You could use normal hardware that is inexpensive. If a cable is plugged of or a switch failed it is no problem. Also you can use the second/third network for load balancing. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
