VIRTUALIZATION MAPPING

摘要

Systems and methods for the management of virtual machine instances are provided. The hosted virtual machine networks are configured in a manner such that communications within the hosted virtual machine network are facilitated through a communication protocol. Illustrative embodiments of the systems and methods may be implemented on a virtual network overlaid on one or more intermediate physical networks that are used as a substrate network. Through the utilization of one or more virtual network mapping components in communication with the hosted virtual network components, communications to and from the hosted virtual networks can be processed by mapping relationships between the virtual network communication protocol and the router communication protocol. The mapping information can be provided in advance or as requested to the router components and hosted virtual network components to facilitate bi-lateral communications between the components.

主权项

1. A system for managing hosted virtual machine networks comprising:
a processor; and a memory operatively coupled to the processor, the memory including instructions that upon execution by the processor cause the system to: host a virtual network node; and execute a virtual network mapping program, the virtual network mapping program configured to:
obtain incoming and outgoing data communications between the virtual network node and an external communication network, wherein incoming data communications are received in accordance with an edge router communication protocol and outgoing data communication are received in accordance with a virtual network routing protocol; andaccess mapping information corresponding to an association of the edge router communication protocol and to a virtual network routing protocol, wherein the mapping information corresponds to a subset of router components in a defined communication network;facilitate the modification of the incoming and outgoing data communications based on the mapping information.
