Zusammenfassung:A packet processing technique can include receiving a packet, and parsing the packet based on a protocol field to generate a parse result vector. The parse result vector is used to select between forwarding the packet to a virtual machine executing on a host processing integrated circuit, forwarding the packet to a physical media access controller, multicasting the packet to multiple virtual machines executing on the host processing integrated circuit, and sending the packet to a hypervisor.
