Abstract
Transfer of data is facilitated between at least one peer application and a host, via a network and network interface circuitry associated with the host. That is, data destined for the host is provided from the peer to the network interface circuitry via the network. The NIC has the capability to offload the processing of data provided according to particular protocols. In addition, based on characteristics of the data, a filtering rule associated with those characteristics may be applied to the data prior to providing the data to the host. When there are a plurality of filter rules associated with characteristics of the data, in some examples, it is automatically determined which one of the plurality of filter rules associated with characteristics of the data to apply to the data.
