Abstract

This application relates to a logical message interface for configuring and managing physical devices in single and multi-host systems. Systems and methods for communicating in a network use a physical device. The physical device includes hardware including a management data input / output interface, and firmware configured to cause the hardware to provide a logical message interface using the management data input / output interface. The logical message interface is used to receive messages for configuring and / or managing the physical device.
