NIC with switching functionality between network ports
摘要:
A network interface device includes a host interface for connection to a host processor and a network interface, which is configured to transmit and receive data packets over a network, and which comprises multiple distinct physical ports configured for connection to the network. Processing circuitry is configured to receive, via one of the physical ports, a data packet from the network and to decide, responsively to a destination identifier in the packet, whether to deliver a payload of the data packet to the host processor via the host interface or to forward the data packet to the network via another one of the physical ports.
