<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To allow a VMM to use a network device without depending upon the type of the network device. <P>SOLUTION: On an information processing apparatus having a physical network device which is physically present, a virtual control program which controls the operation of a virtual machine makes a guest OS, including a physical device driver controlling the physical network device, operate on a virtual machine. Further, the virtual control program provides a virtual network device, obtained by virtualizing a network device controlled by the device driver that the guest OS has, for the guest OS. Furthermore, the virtual control program makes guest OS connect the virtual network device and physical network device so that data communication between the virtual network device and physical network device is carried out through a virtual device driver corresponding to the virtual network device, and the physical device driver. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2012,JPO&INPIT |
