Abstract: In some embodiments, an apparatus includes a scheduler disposed at a control device of a switch fabric system. The scheduler is configured to receive a control plane request associated with the switch fabric system having a data plane and a control plane separate from the data plane. The scheduler is configured to designate a control plane entity based on the control plane request and state information of each control plane entity from a set of control plane entities associated with the control plane and instantiated as a virtual machine. The scheduler is configured to send a signal to a compute device of the switch fabric system in response to the control plane request such that the control plane entity is instantiated as a virtual machine at the compute device.

Abstract: In some embodiments, an apparatus includes a first network control entity configured to be implemented at a first edge device. The first network control entity is configured to receive a control packet from a peripheral processing device via a tunnel that is between the peripheral processing device and the first network control entity and that includes at least a portion within a second edge device. The first network control entity is configured to determine routing information associated with the peripheral processing device based on the control packet. The first network control entity is configured to send the routing information to a second network control entity such that the second network control entity routes a data unit addressed to the peripheral processing device to the second edge device without sending the data unit to the first edge device.

Abstract: An apparatus includes a network management module to store a network configuration file. The network configuration file having a binding association with an identifier of a port from a plurality of ports of a switch fabric when the network management module is in a first configuration. The network management module selects the network configuration file based on the binding association with the identifier if the port in response to an access switch being operatively coupled to the port. The network configuration file having a binding association with an identifier of the access switch when the network management module is in a second configuration. The network management module selects the network configuration file based on the binding association with the identifier of the access switch in response to the access switch being operatively coupled to the port.
