We introduce a new concept of management system based on the scalable communication framework effectively working on mixture of several complex layers including private networks. Overlay network architecture with virtual IP addressing has been applied to identify nodes uniquely. Inter-node communication on different private networks is ensured by defined Complex Network Protocol (CNP). We also develop a communication middleware for the cluster management system called SARK (Scalable Architecture Routing Kernel). The total elapsed time for gathering all information and its system overhead are measured. The scalability test performed on the cluster of clusters which contains 100 nodes, and shows our proposed work would be scalable in the cluster of 4,000 nodes. Therefore, our scalable communication framework would be considered as a suitable method for monitoring and controlling a large cluster system on mixture of several complex network layers.
