Abstract
Packet switching is facilitated between a source and a destination through a network interface card. In accordance with an aspect, a NIC is configured to switch ingress packets—coming from the network—selectively to one or multiple destinations (in a NIC which is capable of replicating packets) on the host computer, and alternatively or additionally (in a NIC which is capable of replicating packets) back to one or multiple destinations on the network. In multi-port NICs, this capability effectively allows a NIC to perform the basic functions of a standalone network switch as well as additional useful functions.
