CA 2444066

A system and method for virtual networking (100). Switched Ethernet local area network semantics are provided over an underlying point to point mesh. Computer processor nodes may directly communicate via virtual interfaces over a switch fabric or they may communicate via an ethernet switch emulator (115a, 115b). ARP (adress resolution protocol) logic (135) is used to associate IP adresses with virtual interfaces while allowing computer processors to reply to ARP requests with virtual MAC addresses.

L'invention concerne un système et un procédé de réseautage virtuel (100). Des sémantiques de réseau local Ethernet commuté sont disposées sur un maillage point à point sous-jacent. Des noeuds d'un système informatique peuvent communiquer directement par des interfaces virtuelles dans une matrice de commutation, ou par l'intermédiaire d'un émulateur de commutation Ethernet (115a, 115b). Une logique ARP (protocole de résolution d'adresse) (135) est utilisée pour associer des adresses Internet à des interfaces virtuelles tout en permettant aux processeurs du système informatique de répondre aux demandes ARP avec des adresses MAC virtuelles.
