Summary
An update for the cluster service is available in Windows Server 2012. After you apply this update, multiple User Datagram Protocol (UDP) ports can be used to set up routes between the cluster nodes. The UDP ports can then be routed through distinct physical routes. Additionally, if one of the routes fails, an alternative route can take over, and cluster communications remain intact.
