ABSTRACT:
A method of operating intelligent network interface circuitry includes the network interface circuitry coupling a core processor to a network to facilitate communication over the network between the core processor and at least a first peer and a second peer. A first connection connects to the first peer and a second connection connects to the second peer. The network interface circuitry receives data packets from the first peer via the network on the first connection, according to a first particular protocol. The network interface circuitry processes the received data, including associating, with the second connection, data that is at least a portion of the data packets received on the first connection, such that the data received by the intelligent network interface circuitry on the first connection is switched to be outgoing from the intelligent network interface circuitry on the second connection, according to a second particular protocol.
