COMMUNICATIONS OVER MULTIPLE PROTOCOL INTERFACES IN A COMPUTING ENVIRONMENT

摘要

According to one aspect of the present disclosure a system and technique for communications over multiple protocol interfaces in a computing environment is disclosed. The system includes a processor and logic executable by the processor to: identify a network interface for egress data packet communications; responsive to the identified network interface differing from a data packet fragmentation technique desired for the data packet communications, derive fragmentation data according to the desired data packet fragmentation technique; generate an application layer header for the data packet communications; store values of the fragmentation data in select fields of the application layer header; fragment the data packet communications according to the desired data packet fragmentation protocol; and transmit the data packet communications including the application layer header over the identified network interface.
