<p>Plural processing subsystems of an information handling system, such as plural blades of a blade server, communicate through a base protocol, such as PCI Express, to a peripheral communication device with each processing subsystem interfaced through a port of the peripheral communication device. An encapsulation module of the peripheral communication device encapsulates the base protocol in an advanced switching packet, such as a packet formed with the PCI Express Advanced Switching protocol. A routing module of the peripheral communication device routes the packets through a bus, such as a blade server backplane bus, for use of the information by a selected peripheral. Peripherals communicate with selected processing subsystems by sending advanced switching packets to the routing module for the encapsulation module to extract the peripheral information from the packets and send the peripheral information to the port associated with the selected processing subsystem.</p> |
