Abstract
A processing device handles a protocol address in a network. In particular, the processing device generates the protocol address for a host on the processing device based on a local host identifier of the host, a unit identifier of the processing device; and a server identifier of a server comprising the processing device. The processing device is configured to transmit outgoing messages and receive incoming messages for the host over the network using the protocol address.
