Abstract
A method is provided for networking nodes in a data center network structure, including connecting at least ten base units each including connected nodes with southbound connections of a multi-host NIC controller having northbound a higher total bandwidth than southbound, the controllers configured as dragonfly switches; connecting the ten base units with their respective controllers in a modified Peterson graph form as an intragroup network to build a super unit including three groups, where each controller uses three northbound connections for a direct connection to three other base units of the super unit, and in which two base units of each group are connected via a respective one of a fourth northbound connection to one of the other groups, and a remaining base unit not being part of one of the groups is adapted for using three northbound connections for direct connection to one base unit in each group.
