ABSTRACT:
A virtual networking system and method are disclosed. Switched Ethernet local area network semantics are provided over an underlying point to point mesh. Computer processor nodes may directly communicate via virtual interfaces over a switch fabric or they may communicate via an ethernet switch emulation. Address resolution protocol logic helps associate IP addresses with virtual interfaces while allowing computer processors to reply to ARP requests with virtual MAC addresses.
