MULTIPATHING USING A NETWORK OF OVERLAYS |
摘要 |
For multipathing using a network of overlays, a set of virtual network interfaces (VNICs) corresponding to a physical network interface (PNIC) is created in a first data processing system. A first virtual network interface (VNIC) from the set of VNICs is bound to a virtual machine (VM) executing in a first data processing environment across a data network from the first data processing system. During a data communication with a second data processing system, data is divided into a first portion and a second portion, the first portion using a first path from the first VNIC to the first VM to the second data processing system, and the second portion using a second path from the PNIC to the second data processing system. |

1. A method for multipathing using a network of overlays, the method comprising:
creating, using a processor and a memory, a set of virtual network interfaces (VNICs) corresponding to a physical network interface (PNIC) in a first data processing system; binding a first virtual network interface (VNIC) from the set of VNICs to a virtual machine (VM) executing in a first data processing environment across a data network from the first data processing system; and dividing, during a data communication with a second data processing system, data into a first portion and a second portion, the first portion using a first path from the first VNIC to the first VM to the second data processing system, and the second portion using a second path from the PNIC to the second data processing system. |
