ABSTRACT:
Adaptive sets of lanes are configured between routers in a system area network. Source nodes determine whether packets may be adaptively routed between the lanes by encoding adaptive control bits in the packet header. The adaptive control bits also facilitate the flushing of all lanes of the adaptive set. Adaptive sets may also be used in uplinks between levels of a fat tree.
