Abstract:
A communication system includes a communication apparatus configured to process a packet, and a controller configured to set the communication apparatus for processing a packet. The controller includes a memory storing instructions, and a processor configured to execute program instructions to determine a forwarding path for a packet addressed to a virtual machine based on an access rule indicating connectivity between virtual machines in accordance with an arrangement of the virtual machine, and set the communication apparatus for processing the packet.
Abstract:
A visualization device is communicable with one or a plurality of host servers for hosting a virtual system, and includes an information acquisition unit for collecting configuration information on the virtual system and the host server, a storage unit for storing the configuration information therein, and a drawing unit for expressing a virtual machine and a virtual network configuring the virtual system with different axes based on the configuration information stored in the storage unit, expressing a connection relationship between a virtual machine and a virtual network by linking the lines extending from the respective axes, and grouping virtual machines in units of server on which the virtual machines operate thereby to generate drawing information for expressing the configuration of the virtual system and the host server.
Abstract:
A terminal communicating with a network including a forwarding device for forwarding a packet and a control device for controlling the forwarding device in accordance with a request from the forwarding device, includes a communication unit that receives a processing rule indicating that a packet for communicating with a first destination is changed so as to communicate with a second destination, from the control device, a storage unit that stores the received processing rule, and a processing unit that in a case of communicating with the network, changes a destination of a packet in accordance with a processing rule that corresponds to the packet by referring to the processing rule stored in the storage unit.
