Frame control in replication networks

Abstract

Disclosed are systems, apparatuses, methods, and computer-readable media for balancing replicated frames in a replication network. A method includes: receiving, at a redundancy receiver, first frames from a first path and second frames from a second path, determining a network performance imbalance between a redundancy edge device to the redundancy receiver based on receiving the first frames and the second frames, and in response to determining a threshold of memory will be exceeded based on the delay between the first frames and the second frames, providing an indication to slow frames transmitted along the second path. In some aspects, a path mismatch device is configured to track replication frames and determine network performance imbalance. For example, the path mismatch device can identify one network is slower than another, and may provide remediation to balance network performance that maintains the integrity of the replication network.
