Abstract:
Described herein are systems, methods, and software to enhance flow operations on a host computing system. In one implementation, a virtual switch on a host identifies a packet from a virtual node. In response to identifying the packet, the virtual switch determines whether the packet corresponds to a cached result action based on traits of the packet. If the packet corresponds to a cached result action, then the virtual switch may process the packet in accordance with the cached result action. In contrast, if the packet does not correspond to a cached result action, then the virtual switch may process the packet in accordance with first flow operations to determine a result action, and cache the result action for use with future packets.

Claim (Index 8):
The method of  claim 1  further comprising:\n identifying a second packet received on a physical network interface of the host computing system, wherein the second packet comprises second traits; \n in response to identifying the packet received on the physical network interface, determining whether a cached result action in the set of result actions is associated with the second traits; \n if a cached result action is not associated with the second traits:\n process the second packet in accordance with second flow operations to determine a second result action; and \n cache the second result action with the set of result actions; \n \n if a cached result action is associated with the second traits;\n process the second packet in accordance with the cached result action.
