Abstract
Exemplary embodiments include methods and/or procedures for handling messages from one or more data-plane nodes (DPNs) to a plurality of controller nodes configured in a cluster, comprising: receiving a message from a DPN; tagging the message with an incarnation identifier (IID) associated with the DPN; and performing HD handling of the tagged message, which includes comparing a value of the IID of the tagged message with a value of a global IID associated with the DPN, discarding the tagged message if the value of the IID of the tagged message is less than the value of the global IID, and processing the tagged message if the value of the IID of the tagged message is not less than the value of the global IID. Exemplary embodiments also include controller nodes, controller clusters, and computer-readable media embodying operations of the exemplary methods and/or procedures.
