Abstract

A hash collision prevention system includes a plurality of host devices and a plurality of networking devices. A host device address generation system retrieves network addressing information associated with the plurality of host devices, and identifies a hashing function utilized by the plurality of networking devices in transmitting data packets associated with the plurality of host devices. The host device address generation system then uses the hashing function and the network addressing information to determine a plurality of host device addresses that do not produce a hash collision, and provides the plurality of host device addresses for provisioning to the plurality of host devices.
