摘要:
An address translation method for use in a system including a plurality of cluster nodes and including the steps of: at a source node, receiving over a first network a communication with a first destination address having an index portion and an offset portion, wherein the index portion includes a partition number portion; providing an address mapping table which maps a plurality of indexes to a corresponding plurality of node ID's, each of the plurality of node ID's identifying a different one of the plurality of cluster nodes; using the index portion from the first destination address as an index into the address mapping table to identify a node ID, wherein the identified node ID identifies a destination node; appending the identified node ID to the first destination address to generate a second destination address; and using the second destination address to send information to a second network of the destination node.
