Abstract:
A network switch receives routing information pertaining to a virtual machine from a hypervisor managing the virtual machine. The switch adds a wild card entry associated with the virtual machine to a first routing data structure, wherein the wild card entry specifies one or more exact match fields, one or more wild card fields and an action to perform for packets having properties that match the one or more exact match fields.
