Abstract
In one embodiment, a system includes a number of application-specific integrated circuits (ASICs). The system also includes one or more processors coupled to the ASICs including instructions executable by the processors. The processors being operable when executing the instructions to configure the plurality of ASICs to route data packets using a standard protocol; configure the ASICs to set up a tunnel, using the standard protocol, for moving data packets from one ASIC to another of the number of ASICs; and implement a software overlay to facilitate interaction between the number of ASICs through the tunnel for moving the data packets.
