Estimating the term…
A method and a network architecture for isolation of the network protocol stack from the operating system are provided. The network architecture may include an IO interface arranged to receive and transfer messages from/to the consumer application. The messages may carry high-level generic network device commands, targeted for execution by a particular protocol layer, to which protocol the messages pertain. The network architecture may further included an isolated network protocol stack arranged to process the high-level commands for execution and further arranged to generate device-specific command from the high-level commands, and an IO component arranged to execute the device-specific commands.
A network architecture for use by at least one consumer application and at least one operating system, said network architecture comprising:
A computer-implemented method for executing IO requests of a consumer using an isolated network protocol stack, said method comprising:
A computer software product, including a computer-readable medium in which computer program instructions are stored, which instructions, when read by a computer, cause the computer to perform a method for executing IO requests of a consumer using an isolated network protocol stack, said method comprises:
