    摘要: Some embodiments provide a system that includes several host machines for hosting several virtual machines and a physical network for interconnecting the host machines. Each host machine includes a managed physical switching element (MPSE) including several ports for performing link layer forwarding of packets to and from a set of virtual machines running on the host machine. Each port is associated with a unique media access control (MAC) address. Each host machine includes a managed routing element (MPRE) for receiving a data packet from a port of the MPSE and performing network layer routing in order to forward the received data packet from a first virtual machine of a first network segment to a second virtual machine of a second network segment.

    摘要: The advantage of a logical network implemented with hypervisors is well understood. However, it is still often necessary to provide bridging between a logical network (such as VXLAN) and a physical network (such as VLAN). This is particularly so when customers of network virtualization need L2 centric protocols on hybrid networks where logical networks and physical networks co-exist. Bridging also allows seamlessly transition between L2 centric workloads into VMs on hypervisors.

    摘要翻译: 用虚拟机管理程序实现的逻辑网络的优点是很好理解的。 但是,在逻辑网络(如VXLAN)和物理网络(如VLAN)之间提供桥接仍然是非常必要的。 当网络虚拟化的客户在逻辑网络和物理网络共存的混合网络上需要以L2为中心的协议时尤其如此。 桥接还允许在以L2为中心的工作负载之间无缝过渡到虚拟机管理程序中的虚拟机。
