System and method for identifying communication between virtual servers |
摘要 |
A server, including a virtual machine identifier assigning section to assign an identifier of a virtual machine operating on the server; and a network interface to transmit a packet including a Layer 2 header information which includes the identifier of the virtual machine, wherein the network interface transmits the packet to a packet encapsulate section which encapsulates a packet field including the Layer 2 header information with a virtual network identifier, wherein the virtual network identifier represents a virtual tenant network corresponding to the virtual machine in multiple tenants network. |

1. A server, comprising:
a memory storing instructions; and a processor configured to execute the instructions to:
assign an identifier of a virtual machine operating on the server; andtransmit a packet to a network device, the packet including a Layer 2 header information which includes the identifier of the virtual machine,wherein the network device encapsulates the packet, to generate a packet field including the Layer 2 header information, with a virtual network identifier, andwherein the virtual network identifier represents a virtual tenant network corresponding to the virtual machine in a multi-tenant network. |
