SCALABLE POLICY MANAGEMENT IN AN EDGE VIRTUAL BRIDGING (EVB) ENVIRONMENT |
| 摘要 |
A method includes validating, by a switch, a message including virtual machine (VM) information using a value of a virtual station interface (VSI) type identification (ID) to perform a lookup of a fetched VSI database. The VM information for the VM comprises VSI type ID and virtual local area network (VLAN) ID. The switch retrieves an address of the VM from a first table for multiple different VM types based on using VSI type ID and network ID. The switch retrieves rules associated with the retrieved address of the VM and the VSI type ID from a second table including VM information. The switch applies the associated rules for the VM. |
