Physics doesn't negotiate. When you cram 1,024 H100 GPUs into high-density racks, the network isn't just moving packets-it's managing thermodynamics. A single overheated switch can throttle an entire $500 million AI training cluster. This guide shows network engineers how to build thermal-aware routing using standard BGP and open-source tools. No proprietary hardware. No custom protocols. Just Python, SONiC, and FRRouting. What You'll Learn: - Why AI workloads create unique thermal challenges (the straggler problem) - How to inject temperature data into BGP routing decisions - Implementing sub-200ms failover when switches overheat - Production deployment with SONiC, FRR, and Redis - When NOT to use thermal-aware routing (the reality check) Includes: ✓ Complete working code validated in virtual POC ✓ Production-ready Python agent with systemd integration ✓ Real test results showing baseline → thermal event → recovery cycle ✓ Configuration files for SONiC and FRRouting ✓ Troubleshooting guide and FAQ This isn't theory. This is working code from a CCIE with 25 years of experience who actually built and tested it. Perfect for: Network architects, data center engineers, AI infrastructure teams, SONiC operators, and anyone managing high-density compute clusters.
