Abstract:
Forwarding Ethernet packets is disclosed, including: receiving an incoming packet; determining a value based at least in part on performing a hash operation on at least a portion of a destination Internet Protocol (IP) address included in the incoming packet; comparing the value against a pre-established look-up table to determine whether a corresponding index value is found, wherein the pre-established look-up table stores index values and corresponding data sets to respective ones of the index values; determining a destination media access control (MAC) address associated with the incoming packet based at least in part on whether the corresponding index value is found in the pre-established look-up table; and forwarding the incoming packet to a virtual machine associated with the determined destination MAC address.

Claim (Index 8):
The system of clam  4 , wherein in response to determining the destination MAC address included in the incoming packet matches the global MAC address associated with the matching data set, the destination MAC address associated with the incoming packet is determined to comprise a value associated with a local MAC address associated with the matching data set.
