Methods and systems for managing virtual addresses for virtual networks
First Claim
1. A method for enabling a virtual network between a first processor and a second processor using at least one additional processor separate from the first processor and the second processor, the method comprising the steps of:
- determining, at the at least one additional processor, a first virtual address and a first base address for the first processor such that the first virtual address is routable through the virtual network and the first base address is routable through a base network;
determining, at the at least one additional processor, a second virtual address and a second base address for the second processor such that the second virtual address is routable through the virtual network and the second base address is routable through the base network;
providing, by the at least one additional processor, the first virtual address and the first base address to the first processor and the second virtual address and the second base address to the second processor; and
enabling the virtual network over the base network based on the first virtual address, the first base address, the second virtual address, and the second base address.

Abstract
Methods and systems are provided for enabling a virtual network between a first processor and a second processor using at least one additional processor separate from the first processor and the second processor. In one embodiment, the at the at least one additional processor may determine a first virtual address and a first base address for the first processor such that the first virtual address is routable through the virtual network and the first base address is routable through a base network and determine a second virtual address and a second base address for the second processor such that the second virtual address is routable through the virtual network and the second base address is routable through the base network. The at least one additional processor may provide the first virtual address and the first base address to the first processor and the second virtual address and the second base address to the second processor. Moreover, the virtual network may be enabled over the base network based on the first virtual address, the first base address, the second virtual address, and the second base address.

15. A virtual network comprising:
-
a first processor;
a second processor; and
at least one additional processor separate from the first processor and the second processor that enables said virtual network between the first and second processor, the at least one additional processor further comprising;
means for determining a first virtual address and a first base address for the first processor such that the first virtual address is routable through the virtual network and the first base address is routable through a base network;
means for determining a second virtual address and a second base address for the second processor such that the second virtual address is routable through the virtual network and the second base address is routable through the base network; and
means for providing the first virtual address and the first base address to the first processor and the second virtual address and the second base address to the second processor, wherein said virtual network is enabled over the base network based on the first virtual address, the first base address, the second virtual address, and the second base address. - View Dependent Claims (16)

17. A computer program product for enabling a virtual network between a first processor and a second processor using at least one additional processor separate from the first processor and the second processor, the computer program product comprising code embodied on a computer readable medium, said code comprising:
-
code that determines, at the at least one additional processor, a first virtual address and a first base address for the first processor such that the first virtual address is routable through the virtual network and the first base address is routable through a base network;
code that determines, at the at least one additional processor, a second virtual address and a second base address for the second processor such that the second virtual address is routable through the virtual network and the second base address is routable through the base network;
code that provides, by the at least one additional processor, the first virtual address and the first base address to the first processor and the second virtual address and the second base address to the second processor; and
code that enables the virtual network over the base network based on the first virtual address, the first base address, the second virtual address, and the second base address. - View Dependent Claims (18)
