Abstract
A method and apparatus that dynamically binds one or more network interfaces of a plurality of virtual network machines is described. The apparatus instantiates the plurality of virtual network machines, where the plurality of virtual network machines are virtually independent but share a set of physical resources within the single network device and each of the plurality of virtual network machines belong to a different network domain. The apparatus receives subscriber records that are associated with virtual circuits on a plurality of ports on the apparatus. The apparatus dynamically binds the one or more network interfaces of each of the virtual machines to a set of sub-interfaces, such that each of the virtual circuits is communicatively coupled with one of the virtual network machines and the bindings are represented with data structures.
