Claim Text:
1. A method of initializing a secondary port configuration register of a non-transparent (NT) port of a PCIe switch, the initializing method using a server address space associated with at least one server including a secondary port memory map, the method comprising: initializing a PCIe configuration register of a secondary port as a PCIe endpoint; initializing a PCIe configuration register of a primary port as a PCIe bridge port; and using a micro-processor coupled to the PCIe switch and having associated therewith a micro-processor address space, programming a secondary address translation register with an end point memory offset to redirect all accesses from the at least one server that are directed to a secondary port memory map within the server address space to an end point memory map within the micro-processor address space.
