METHOD FOR NETWORK INTERFACE SHARING AMONG MULTIPLE VIRTUAL MACHINES

摘要

PURPOSE: A method for sharing a network interface between virtual machines is provided to physically share an NIC(Network Interface Card) in a computing system by imaging the NIC. CONSTITUTION: A virtual NIC driver of a customer operating system which is operated in a customer virtual machine receives a customer operating request packet. The block attaches a transmission waiting row to a sharing memory unit. The part of the customer operating system request packet is copied to the free block of a shared memory in a computing system(704). The part of the service operating system request packet is included in the free block(714).
