Summary:A network device may include a set of switches. Each of the switches may include a set of ingress links and a set of egress links. One of the switches may store mapping information that identifies a first timeslot and one of the egress links for data received, during a second timeslot, on one of the ingress links. The one of the switches may receive data, associated with the second timeslot, on the one of the ingress links, identify the first timeslot and the one of the egress links, associated with the second timeslot and the one of the ingress links, based on the mapping information, and output the data, during the first timeslot, on the one of the egress links.
