摘要： Embodiments herein describe a computing system which is reconfigurable into different server configurations that have different numbers of sockets. For example, the computing system may include two server nodes which can be configured into either two independent servers (i.e., two 2S servers) or a single server (i.e., one 4S server). In one embodiment, the computing system includes a midplane which is connected to processor buses on the server nodes. When configured as a single server, the midplane connects the processor bus (or buses) on one of the server nodes to the processor bus or buses on the other server node. In this manner, the processors in the two server nodes can be interconnected to function as a single server. In contrast, the connections between the server nodes in the midplane are disabled when the server nodes operate as two independent servers.

摘要： A network element having centralized TCP termination with multi-service chaining is described herein. According to one embodiment, a network element includes a switch fabric, a first service module coupled to the switch fabric, and a second and a third service modules coupled to the first service module over the switch fabric. In response to packets of a network transaction received from a client over a first network for access a server of a data center having multiple servers over a second network, the first service module is configured to terminate a TCP connection of the packets. The TCP terminated packets are transmitted to the second and third service modules over the switch fabric. The second and third service modules are configured to perform different application network services on the TCP terminated packets without having to perform a TCP process again. Other methods and apparatuses are also described.

摘要： Layer 4 gateway for a converged datacenter fabric is described herein. According to one embodiment, a packet of a network transaction is received from a client over a first network for accessing a server of a datacenter having a plurality of servers over a second network. One or more network services are performed on the packet including terminating a TCP (transport control protocol) connection associated with the network transaction and generating a data stream. The data stream without TCP information is routed to the server via a converged I/O interface over the second network if the second network is a converged fabric network. The data stream with TCP information is routed via a TCP connection to the server if the second network is an Ethernet. Other methods and apparatuses are also described.
